I am currently at work, and just got off a call. I picked up a guy in CHF (conjestive heart failure) and had to give him a 12 Lead EKG. Well, his chest was very hairy and our electrodes won't stick to a lot of hair, so I had to remove a good bit. We carry scissors and a cheap Bic disposable razor for this very situation. Well basically the Razor is worthless after one swipe, so I go to the scissors, and again, not quick enough. Well I have recently honed my Kershaw Chive to a nice smoothe edge (factory, although very sharp, was very toothy). I casually pulled it out and proceeded to shave a nice clean path of hair off his chest. Took about 7 seconds. He wasn't really paying attention to what I was doing seeing how he was basically drowning in his own fluid, so he thought I used a straight razor on his chest. I didn't offer any details, but I did get a good EKG tracing.:D
