I'm sure it will be. I'm definitely a "learn by doing" kind of person so I think this experience will forever cement the need for good technique with a GEM razor, the payoff being an excellent shave when it's done right! No pain, no gain. Maybe not the best adage to live by when it comes to shaving but one that I seem to be following.
No pain no gain works for muscle building but could be catastrophic for shaving.

I'm pretty sure that swords are unmentionable and undisplayable if used to shave with.
