Cut Throat

[Kev11n1]

There seems to be a reason why this is known as the cut throat razor!!!! - i've shaved with a Dovo best quality for a month and despite having the closest shave ever I'v also had my lowest blood count ever (- my technique or a weird unexplained virus()) - anyways - my question - despite losing easily a pint of blood (IN A MONTH!!!) should i continue practicing with current blade? / get blade profesionally sharpened and then continue? - continue my lady boy cop out and use a DE rzor for life??? or go back to Fusion powered shaving????

I'd try to figure out why/how you keep cutting yourself. Does it happen when you're positioning the blade or while you're actually cutting hair with it? Are the cuts a symptom of a "problem area" (like under the jaw) or randomly placed? Are you using long, sweeping strokes or little swipes? Shaving after a hot shower or without adequate prep?

Given my own limited (several months) experience with a straight, I've cut myself far less with it than I did with a DE. Knock on wood.

Most of my cuts seem to happen on left side of face

are you using your non-dominant hand to shave that side?
