    Mine is a textbook example of a self inflicted knife wound that involved separating frozen burger patties with a very sharp knife. Knife slides between the patties and into the palm of my hand. I managed to not pass out and make it to urgent care where they stitched the cut together. Still have some nerve damage. Don’t do stupid things with sharp knives kids.

        A sharp knife is a safe knife, a dull knife is a dangerous knife.

          A sharp knife that’s supposed to be sharp is a safe knife.

          A sharp knife that’s supposed to be dull (like a butter knife) is a dangerous one.

      I’ve got nerve damage on two fingers tips, one on each hand, from incidents 20+ years apart. Fucking sucks trying to fish a screw out of a small space, stuff like that. And yes, both times I was being extraordinarily stupid and earned a lifetime handicap.
