Not too big a chunk, about as wide as a fingernail clipping and maybe 3/8in long, but when you slice off the top layer of skin it bleeds a lot and takes forever to stop.
I use the Leaf razor. I got it back in January. I chose it for environmental reasons. It's an all metal razor, and you just put in bare blades (3) so no plastic waste. You collect the old blades in a can, and when it's full you can mail it back to them for recycling. They also use all paper packaging. It's a pivoting razor like most nowadays, but unlike my last razor (Harry's) you can really chop into yourself if the angle is wrong on the edge of your jaw etc. The razor is expensive, but it will eventually wind up cheaper since 50 blades are $12 (so that's under $1 for each replacement set, vs. about $2 for the Harry's cartridge) and I only change them about once a month (although 3 weeks might be better). I only shave 4x a week because it seems like such a waste of time to do it every day, even though I probably should.
