I got a funny, story.... Last night I was at work (WinnDixie) filling up the milk and eggs for the evening and the pallet of eggs was being held together with these plastic bands. Well I decided to cut these with my kershaw leek, low and behold I realized just how sharp and pointed that lil knife is. I was putting too much pressure on cutting the strap and the blade went from the strap when it gave way right into my thigh. All in all it wasn't that bad, inch and half deep with a cut and inch or so wide but it definatly made me go Oh my GOSH!
And had somebody bring me to the ER to get stitches....errr staples regardless.
The lesson for today is, no matter how careful you are with you knives and you know how sharp they are, it doesn't mean you can go and do something stupid to remind yourself about respecting the basics of blade use.
Anyone else have any injury stories to tell as I sit here with one leg stiffened to not put stress on the wound?
