Looks like you've earned the award....



I've actually only had one (knock on wood) and it's well healed by now.

Gratefully accepted

That was actually from a tap, not a slice. So by my definition that blade is sharp!

My worst bite actually was a "benchmade-bite", done by my literally only Non-Spyderco-folder, a Minigrip that openend unnoticed in my pocket..
Other than that, maybe some minor bites from closing Enduras to fast and a finger was in the way.

No pics of any of those though, so nothing to show (and I am not willing to cause a bite deliberately right now just for making a pic and having something to share... :D )

Ouch, I dislike cuts! This one was caused by a Gerber mini para frame I used to have before I threw away. I wasn’t being smart, and was trying to use it as a pry tool, when I made the mistake of putting pressure in the blades closing direction. Somehow I managed to release the lock at the same time, and bam. Ever since switching to quality folders (and admittedly being a whole lot more careful with them) I haven’t had the issue.

Reason being, that the knife openend unnoticed in the pocket like in my case?! I like the BM axxislock, no doubt, but when I adjust the action to my liking it's prone to open in the pocket and so not the safest in carry. Just one of the reasons why backlocks still and probably forever are/will be my favorites..

Stitches! Wow, there is a lesson for me.

An old Delica bite ... wasn’t funny that one!

to be honest, no, it was my stupidity :p



I was cutting a Pineapple and holding it with the other hand, blade was very sharp and I put too much pressure on the knife, so it cut through the fruit and the recurved blade landed in my skin behind the Pineapple :o

Ouch!! Thanks for sharing... And in a way: Not stupidity, but rather a real "battlefield injury" and much cooler than putting the hand in the pocket and getting cut by an opened knife...
