So I've had a bad few weeks, not really taken too good care of stuff but that's improving; on that improvement list is to properly shave again, y'know, look nice again.
So I hop in the shower, grab my electric razor aaaand it's dead.
Bollocks
I delve into the toiletries bag to grab my razor aaaand it's blades have rusted.
(Thanks Gillette for the crappy grade stainless)
Then I remember a while back I made a fixed blade straight razor, tried it out and while it worked it was a bit fiddly to use so I put it to one side and forgot about it, but for shaving body hair it might work.
So I try it out on my torso and good god its like a scythe through wheat, one clean swipe and my skin is bare, fantastic!
So I trim away, neaten up edges and move lower to my stomach, not the slightest nick, gaining confidence, then a bit lower, then lower still to some more difficult, delicate surfaces then...
Oops...
Huh...
Oh...
OH, that's blood...
It wasn't bad but believe me, safety razors only from now on (mind you it did make for a damn good shave).
TLDR: all other razors went kaput, used a straight razor with too much confidence and almost neutered myself.
