Super X Jr pulled a smooth move the other night. As I understand it, he was playing around with my 511, making some Ninja like motions and did not realize he was so close to his leg. The 511 went right on through and bite him. He did not want to go to the hospitol and get stitches however, the next morning it looked much worse so off to the doctor he went but it was too late for stitches so, they used some sort of glue and bandages. Jr is sixteen, not exactly a child, this is a good look at what kid's and adults can do when saftety is not observed, playing around with a knife. I bet he will be more careful in the future. He did say that 511 tip was awful sharp (duh). I was going to give it to him for Xmas, however, he wants a larger knife. :rolleyes: Stupid is what stupid does :D

Yeah, I told him a butter knife! :) I also told him he is lucky is was not my CABS or his RC-4 which are extremely sharp and would have went deeper. I like giving my son's knives however, this is a reminder of what can happen and why I have not given my 8 yr old anything very sharp. Kid's can be very careless at times even though I have taught them knife safety, you can't watch them every second. We all have to learn our lesson's in life, some of those lesson's are painful!!
 
You got THAT right! Many years ago, my younger cousine cut a branch off a tree for a switch, then went to hand it to me. Just as I was grabbing it he decided to trim off the leaves.....almost trimmed off two of my fingers!:eek: One finger was cut, and the other was deep enough to cut the tendon in half. We both learned a lesson that day!!!:D
 
Super x I hate that occurred. I have three of my own and its terrible anytime they get hurt:thumbup:

I had to stay on em at first. Now they're like oh dad just got another knife.:D


I will make good of this as an educational tool and hopefully it will make it a positive:cool:

Thanks for having nerve to share. Now just hide the packages,don't tell the wife, and may I suggest a po box;):D
 
Super X

Sorry to hear about your son getting cut. Never like to see that. However if he learned a lesson then at least there is a positive that can come from it.

Don't get me wrong I am sure your son and myself are not the only people on this forum to make ninja slashing motions, play Conan, play rambo or re enact some scene from our favorite knife weilding heros. After being cut by your own dumb mistake you just learn to play a bit differently. I am sure this incident will be remembered for a while and hopefully it will be put to good use down the road.

Thanks....................
He's a tough guy and will be fine. I told him I was posting this and he had no problem with it. I think he did learn a lesson and had no problem sharing it. I have done my own ignorant stunts plenty of times. The best one was when I cut the tip of my finger off skinning a catfish around his age. Like to have never got it to stop bleeding....... took lot's of flour and pressure to get it to finally clog up. My most recent stunt was about a year ago. I recieved a CS Master Hunter in the mail and it has a plastic mesh sleeve protecting the blade. I grabbed the blade and pulled on the sleeve........


HERE'S YOUR SIGN.......STUPID :D
 
LMAO! I did the same thing with a batac and cardboard sleeve:)

Reminder to self: Always pull cardboard sheath from the spine side of blade:thumbup:
 
Sometimes those lessons are harsh BUT wow what a lesson it is. Like you said, I bet he rethinks things before he does anything like that again. Just thankful it wasn't worse!!! I have to admit I cut my finger bad enough for 6 stiches and I was 29, so learning is not just for the young.:oDUH!!!
 
ouch, tell him I feel for him, and to be careful
 
Dang, sorry to hear when anybody gets hurt.

At least the saying , "Live to fight another day!" applies.

SUPER GLUE is used at our house on a regular basis and has saved us numerous trips to the ER.

It seems like every time we go through the cashier aisle, we buy another tube. Cheap stuff works just as well as the expensive stuff.

Glad your boy is alright.

I learned the "sharp knife" lesson early on as a child of 7 years. I recieved a knife for Christmas from my Father and was warned of its capabilities to open up a finger. I was not horsing around with the knife but I was being careless while carving on a stick and slipped and cut my finger pretty deep. I was embarrassed and bleeding and I really did not want my Father to know what had happened. I went in the house as quite as I could be and made my way to the washroom and bandaged myself up. At the dinner table I was being very cautious to keep the hand with the cut on my lap as to avoid an "I told you so" from my Father but alas I put my hand on the table and realizing rather quickly my mistake I pulled my hand back down into my lap and continued to eat dinner. After a few minutes my Father gently said "I take it you learned a lesson today" to which I replied "yes Sir", and that was that. No lecture or punishment but I instantly earned a lifetime of respect for my knife. We all make mistakes and as long as you learn from them they can be usefull.
 
It is all part of being a knife person.

I could never hope to count or even recall the nick and cuts but my first good one was a Buck Stockman dropped straight into my right foot (the large pointy blade) when I was 6. My best was a tip prying accident with a Bucklite 110 when I was 17. Quick slip and poked me in the web of my hand. I didn't think it was that bad until I remove pressure and it sprayed the bathroom mirror.

Respect for sharp things is learned and earned.
