I’ve been shaving with one for years and have never nicked myself more than I would have with a normal razor. It’s really nothing to be afraid of. The only way to really cut yourself would be to slide “with” the blade across your face, like you’re slicing. Otherwise it’s honestly harder to cut yourself compared to a cartridge razor.

I have never nicked myself with a cartridge razor whether I shave wet or dry, even with sloppy technique. I have 5 safety razors of varying design and thickness and about 100 brands of cream and blades, and I have to be careful with them or they leave gashes on my face. I have a very sharp chin with basically no body fat so that might contribute to it.

No, I'm being hyperbolic, about 15 sample packs in my cabinet right now and tried a few more previously. Feather are the best in my experience.
