I have seen this done in many movies, & I decided if my carry knife was sharp enough to shave my arm or leg hair, I should give it a try on my face.
I applied the shaving cream, & gave it a good pull across my cheek down to my jaw line. It kind of hurt & & so I gave a few more goings over on the same spot. I guess it sort of worked, but I re-did the area with my Mach III razor, & I could tell a huge difference in the stubble clearing. I would hate to have to do my whole face & neck with my carry knife, & if it were my only option for shaving I would grow a beard. Any of you ever try your carry knife for shaving your face?

I shaved with my leatherman wave on a dare once, hurt like hell but actually came away with a halfway decent shave

Have done the whole shave your leg test for knife sharpness. Didn't work as well on the face.

God, it was rough and I DID grow another beard shortly thereafter. |

I went to school with a guy who shaved his arms with a S&W knife, in class.

Yea, a few times.
Typically when in the field for extended times and the old beard got to itching. Don't think I ever recalled doing it without soap and water though. Tj |
