Cut Closing Blade?!?!

Too many times to count. The wife asked to borrow a knife once and came back in the house dripping blood and holding my Swiss Army Knife stating "You didn't tell me it didn't lock". For the last 30 years every time I hand her my SAK I am sure to say "Be careful, it doesn't lock". Yes, she calls me an ass every time.
 
My ZT0620 bit me real good once when I was doing something stupid. Barely missed the vein. View attachment 2996036
Chicks dig scars! I’ve got quite a few as well 😆 the best was when I dropped a sbd mini tempest on my barefoot at my in-laws house. I went running to the bathroom and it looked like someone was murdered blood shot out everywhere. I felt pretty terrible about that one
 
Too many times to remember. Smaller Case multi-blade knives with strong pulls (especially stockmans) are the worst. Rarely have I cut myself w/ folders - knock on wood. Cleaning fixed blades with Wicked Clean then Wax and getting distracted while doing so has landed my stupid azz in the ER for stitches twice. I've cut myself enough where the wife now has bandaids strategically placed throughout the house, garage and vehicles. I should change my BF name to "First Aid Kit".

Here's one. When I was twenty I decided I could save some time and cleanup if I shaved in the shower in the morning. Even got me a fogless mirror. First morning my three blade disposable razor got clogged with whiskers. I was flicking it violently lo clear it.

Without getting too descriptive I hit the worst body part you can imagine. Sliced right through the back of the fellas helmet. Remember mornings when you were twenty? Lots and lots of blood. lol

Blood sprayed on the ceiling. My broke ass didn't go to the hospital. Took six weeks to heal, I had get up in the middle of the night often and jump in a cold shower. There is one uncontrollable body response thar I had to learn to control 100% for that six weeks, because it would cause things to split back open and would heal.

It was so traumatic that I stopped shaving and have had a full beard every since. True story. LMAO!

Damn , a well-told cautionary tale. Humorous too but it gave me shrinkage as I read it 🤣

Once, when I was a teenager, I had a Benchmade Griptilian with the sheepsfoot blade. I was absentmindedly tossing it in the air, causing it to spin, then catching it. At one point I spun it too vigorously because the blade opened slightly. When I caught it and squeezed the blade shut, a half-inch portion of my palm got snipped open by the tip. It left a perfectly 90-degree wound in my palm that was reasonably deep, bled more than I expected, and took forever to heal. Now I prefer a slightly stiffer detent to keep my folders shut.
 
Knock on the wood I haven't gotten cut in a while.
Maybe it's because I've cut down on amount of knives recently and being familiar with the ones that I use.
