just made a super wide cut :0

[Leonard_Bangley39]

i use flat double edger razors to cut. the blade i was using was getting dull cause ive been using it for a while so i taped it up and took out a fresh blade. i made a cut on my left arm while pressing down as hard as i would with the old blade and holy crap was there a difference. after i lifted the blade back up, my skin unstretched and revealed a cut about as wide as half my pinky nail. easily my widest yet. this was just now, im holding a towel on it while typing this to not make a mess. it looks so weird. when blotting the blood away, it still looks like a styro so i dont think i hit beans which is good cause i dont wanna hit beans. looking at this makes me kinda uncomfortable, at least itll leave a good scar.

moral of the story, take the sharpness/dullness of the blade into account before you press down hard.
