Things had been going very well, but I ended up with a bad shave recently. I was using my Merkur HD with a Feather blade and ended up with really bad razor burn on my neck and a puncture in the mole on my left cheek.
After I went back and checked my razor, it appears that the blade wasn't quite square in the razor. Hence, one side was shy and crooked, and the other side was more exposed with a corner sticking out a bit. It was very disappointing, but I'm not discouraged. I guess I just need to pay more attention to my hardware and check things out sooner when things aren't going as planned. Lesson learned, I guess?
