Title: Ever had this happen to a Headblade razor?
Post by: MattD on October 03, 2012, 06:33:01 AM: I swear there was no thin spots on the wear strip before I started.( I normally check) as I was shaving I felt something like small balls in the areas I was checking by hand after a pass. After I finished, I rinsed off the razor and saw this. I've been using headblades for a little over 4 years and this is a first.

It looks like it might be a possibility now!

Post by: clarinetguy on October 04, 2012, 05:04:56 PM: Have not had this happen to this extent but have noticed that the wear can happen sometimes within 3 days of replacement. I usually change the cartridge once a week if not the shave is very rough. I'll post if it happens though.

Never had that happen on any other blade style either.
