Wow -- a DOC Slant and an H.P. Lovecraft reference!!! I'm glad your first aid training kicked-in, and I'm also glad that Yaqi had sold out of this little beast by the time I got around to getting one!Slantember 17
I knew this razor was going to get a run-out in Slantember. But was I ready?
Full shave - the Yaqi slant double open comb/Nacet(5). Somebody had to make an SDOC...
Aided and abetted by an Omega boar, ‘bloomed’ Williams Mug, and the Red Cross.

Nope, not ready. Glad to have some first aid training, because the styptic pencil alone was not going to keep me from bleeding out.
The YSDOC primly covers the blade tabs with a flange, but leaves the blade corners hanging way out there, canted into midair. I was fully aware, and STILL STABBED myself. That thing has more tentacles than Cthulhu!
Very close shave, in fact I lost some whiskers I intended to keep. The YSDOC did an excellent job on the troubling neck whorls. But it bites and I don’t forgive that.
