you can cut yourself with any razor

This I my hack job with my flaretip ss with an astra sp. Even a mild razor will slice a chunk out of your head. My lather was super dry and I shoulda stopped but was in a hurry

 

Ouch!
Even the dullest of dull razor blades can still give one a nasty cut!

I try to keep this fact in mind always as I work in restoring old straight razors with a supposedly 'dull' edge…
Too dull to shave with, but rarely too dull to slice through tender skin...

 

Ouch, hopefully it heals up quick - looks a tad painful!

 

Yea, bad lather = bad shave.

 

Yikes!

 

but I thought they were SAFETY razors...

 

I am very sorry that you were injured, and I hope you heal quickly! I do appreciate the safety reminder. My technique and confidence have improved over the last couple of years, but I always try to remember that it takes only one wrong move to get hurt.

As much as I love to shave with my DE every day, I will use my electric razor (or skip the shave altogether) if I am pressed for time.

 

Ouch. OH... That's your head! Thought you were talking BBS literally.

 

Is that black stuff dried up blood?

 

Every now and then my shavette and Fatip remind me these things can get tricky, when you are in a hurry, no matter how good at it you got.

 

Yes, you get 2 points if you end up with a successful shave
