Yeah, but one guy took off the tip of his thumb, including the nail, trying to do a hanging hair test. Hanging hair test? Take a hair, touch/bump it against the freshly honed and stropped edge, and watch it cleanly pop in two. Some guys use HHT to determine whether their straight razor is sharp eno...

Since the thread has turned philosophical might I suggest that we draw across it that invention of John Rawls that is so delightfully useful, the veil of ignorance ? Therefore we shall have to assume, if we do it properly, that we are shaver going on his travels, but we don't know anything about sk...

Vincent, As one who also shaves with the Feather AC; from personal experience, I might suggest, along with all of the excellent suggestions so far, you experiment with stretching the skin in various directions in the area.
