I use them alot and the main thing you want to practice is the angle you hold it. If you are fleshing a thick part of the hid you can hold it pretty much as flat as you would like and really "rake" the hide. But in them thin areas of face and armpits you have to tilt your arm up and move slow or you will burn a hole right NOW.
Just go slow and practice, it is not that difficult to master. Also, the better you get the braver you get with it and you burn holes anyway (if you are anything like me)
I use one,and it works good for what I use it for.Just remember to flesh from the shoulders toward the head,you cut less holes this way.Trust me. Just practice with it and you will be fine LOL
A wet hide. When hide starts to dry out wet down with a spray bottle.
Beam,krowtann, shave. Or you can do it the long way.
