Nice idea, well executed. A reflector (piece of white card) may have reduced reflections on silver.

Damn!!! that sends shivers down my spine just looking at that. But then. . . that was your point, wasn't it? Nice work. Clean (the shot, that is,) and dramatic.

Nice use of frame, clever enough to make viewer think a couple secs and then... AHA!... good blood (too good?), nice reflections... a simple and powerful picture

ouch, bad nick! ;)
This shot is very clean looking. I love the reflections on the shaver and the white surface. Nice touch.
