Right there with ya, brother. The last time I used the HB (about 4 weeks ago) I took a chunk out of the back of my head right in the center where the skull meets the neck. Been using the M5 ever since. I probably got the blade caught in one of the wrinkles.

It did it to the top of my head, I just thought it was a dull blade, guess I was wrong

hey.
sorry for your cut, and I'm glad you can shave again.
I most likely never cut myself, and I'm  not carefull at all:d

The HB is like having a pet snake. Most of the time it is great but every once in a while it will bite you.

And when you give it a funny look and ask why that happened it says "I'm a HeadBlade, it's what I do!"

I used the hb once and had a nasty cut. Threw it away and went electric.
