Yeah, I might be in the same category. When I was shaving my beard manually instead of with a machine, I not only managed to occasionally cut my cheeks – which is pretty common – but also other parts of my face, including my nose at least once.
I'm also very happy to not live in a time when you had to use one of those old school razors that's basically just a big knife. I don't think that would be a long life for me (the option of letting someone else hold a big knife to my throat seems only marginally better ).
