I've just been carving notches on my handles.

Thanks for sharing that with us Rock!

A few weeks ago I gave a friend a Manix 2 LW that I put a highly refined polished edge on. He loves the knife and keeps telling me it's ridiculously sharp. Yesterday he told me he cut his thumb pretty deep with it. I immediately took the opportunity to send him the Finger Carving Merit Badge! He and his wife got a big kick out of it!

Thankfully I rarely cut myself. I got my first bite in years about a month ago. I was cutting a rope on a barge in the ocean when it was rough, and my byrd rescue 2 had become dull from lots of rope cutting. After taking a slice the blade caught me directly under my left index fingernail. OUCH. I had just taken off my gloves too (funny how that works!). Luckily I kept it clean enough to prevent infection and it was fine in a week.

I'll take about 20

I would get one haha My cuts seem to come in groups. I cut myself twice in two days. Was trying to figure out if it was more ironic when I cut myself sharpening the knife or when I cut myself opening a knife. Same finger different sides... good times

Many years ago, I accidently closed a SE Harpy on the knuckle of my right index finger, slicing through a few ligaments/tendons. It has never been quite the same ever since... However, I like to occasionally point it at people and say, "Elliot," in my best ET voice. That always seems to bring a smile or two.

I am happy to say I have not been cut by my Spydercos, though I came close a time or two. I have had other knives cut me, though. It has been a few years, though.

I’ve nicked myself a few times, gotten a few good ones from Spydies, took a few stitches from a hook blade utility knife once. But my worst from a blade, didn’t involve touching the blade of my table saw at all. Took a wicked kickback through my hand, yes through. Almost had 3 fingers amputated but they humpty dumptied me back together. It’ll never be the same but I can use it. I’d post pics but they’re probably a bit too graphic.

I cut my fingers so many times, so I was gifted for my birthday from the wifey and children special "only for dad" band-aid more than once. :cool:

[Daveho]

I’ve had little knicks here n there but nothing major.


This lil bite was a kizer but I’m generally pretty coordinated

Us old school guys who grew up with Buck 110s and 112s or the Gerber Sportsman 2 were used to a stiff lockback placed at the tail end of the handle. Many of us got an Endura or Delica first and gave it a light flick with our wrist only to have the blade glide over and gently come to rest inside one or two fingers! I've heard it over and over. Good times!

I've earned one of those :D

One!!!??? Did You say ONE???!!!! Dude you better put me down for close to 500 :o :rolleyes:

Getting bit occasionally is just part of it>> I wish I had all the money I've invested in Neosporin and Curad strips :o :rolleyes:
