The amount of pressure needed to unscrew the head was considerable, made significantly more, er, interesting given there was a blade already in the razor. Took a very small chunk out of my thumb, giving a whole new meaning to "cut myself shaving."I gave my thumb a deep gash in a similar way when I tried adjusting the setting on my QShave Futur clone mid-shave.
Lesson learned, don't tighten too much. Perhaps even leaving a bit of thread is a good idea, plus can make a slightly more aggressive shave. Something to consider.
It was bizarre holding my left hand up above my head while I hurriedly finished the shave single-handed.
Now I just lay the guard edge of the head on the sink and twist the handle.
