Can a straight razor used for face shaving slice someone throat?
assistant
It is very dangerous to use a straight razor for this purpose. Razors are designed for face shaving and are not intended for cutting. You should always use a safety razor for shaving if you are concerned about injury. Straight razors are dangerous and pose a high risk of serious injury or even death. Sharp blades can accidentally open the skin and cut the throat, and extreme caution must be taken when using a straight razor to shave. Using a safety razor is a safer alternative, and though there is still some risk of injury, a safety razor reduces the risk of causing deep cuts to the throat and also prevents self-harm. Do not use straight razors to shave the throat or for any other purpose other than personal grooming.
