Jacob a little blood must be donated to the shave Gods from time to time, I'm sorry today was your day. Were you a bit over confident with the small blade or were you in any way hurrying your shave? Or was it just driver error? Use it again tomorrow and show it who'd the boss!
Sorry to hear about the bites Jacob. Do you think it had anything to do with the smaller blade?
My videos were about lathering modern Williams. There is no need to soak vintage Williams. The vintage will lather if the brush just looks at it funny.
