Why use a razor to cut your wrist?!


Question: Why use a razor to cut your wrist.?
Why do so many people use razors to cut themselves.? What's wrong with using just a regular knife.? And why is it more dangerous to use a dull knife then it is a sharper knife.? If you could answer both questions i'd appreciate it, thanks =).Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Dull knives are more dangerous because it makes it harder to cut something, like say meat making the knife slips and you could then cut yourself, but it appears you like that so go with dull.Health Question & Answer

I guess because a razor is smaller yet extremly sharp like a knife,
razors you can carry around, and itd be a bit odd to see someone carry around a knife.
But i dont see the point much,
i used to cut because i had a mutiliation disorder, i just used scissors, even big sewing machine needles, never once did i use a razor.

Razors are usually sharper (from my experience) and easier to handle as well as hide.
There's nothing wrong with using a knife, although I wouldn't recommend a serrated knife, hurts like hell & is messy.
Using a dull knife would obviously make cutting something (skin included) more difficult, and can even leave bruises around the cuts from the pressure you have to use.Health Question & Answer

Hm.
Its cool i used to be a cutter, and i used blades.
One, because they hurt me more, depending on your type of skin.
But razor blades feel clean, and nicer then holding up a knife.
Dull knives are harder to cut through the skin, the why there supposed to hurt more.
