so... (a little embarassing story to follow)
i couldnt wait for my ulize to arrive..
drove to bern for over an hour to get myself another endura; while in the shop, i asked to see the "warrior" (they didnt have one) and the bushcraft; now i kinda wish they DIDNT have one, but they did!
anyway, i pull the fu**er out of it's sheet in which it sits quite firmly in.. and i **** you not, i pierce my pinky with the tip, i bleed all over the floor, the glass-display..
and i keep telling the sweet lady in the shop how sorry i am, she was quite quick with the paper-towels and a bandaid, i also told her i was free of any infectious diseases; i think i must of said "sorry" for about a gazillion times!
i also told her that's EXACTLY why i like spyderco's, pointy and SHARP!
later i found another bandaid in the box with my new SS endura.
i was SOOO embarrassed!
once my mail-ordered ulize arrives, i think my next knife will have to be a bushcraft!

Great story! I love that they put an extra band aid in the box :) Take care with the Ulize. Its a **** of a cutter with a needle like point, very sharp!!! :Dswissknife wrote:once my mail-ordered ulize arrives, i think my next knife will have to be a bushcraft!

I would have had to purchased the knife that "bit" me. It selected you.
I hope you heal up quickly.

I upload my pictures to Photobucket, then copy the IMG code and paste it into my post. That lets you post larger pictures than uploading directly to the forum.swissknife wrote:just tried to upload a pic from my pc with a little bit of lanyard-work i did; it's WAY too big - how do i get it smaller!?

I feel your embarrassment. I was checking out multi tools at a local department store, when I went to shut the tool I lanced my finger. I felt like such an idiot, it was a big store so they walked through the entire building with my hand up in the air blood running down my arm to the first aid center. I didn't buy the tool I was just happy to get out of there with what was left of my dignity :D
