got my first esee for Christmas... an izzy that was an instant close friend.
in all the time i've been lurking here i keep reading about getting bitten from the dumbest reasons while the knife isn't even being used and thinking how careless people are...
well, guess who's the idiot now.
i was just holding the knife (sheathed, with the sheath in one hand and the handle in the other) while having an in-depth discussion with my father-in-law and i guess i put a little too much pressure. the izzy popped free of the sheath and in my surprise and muscle reaction, my hands jerked back together sticking the knife in the crease between the first and second pad of my index finger. the cut was deep and fast, but probably just shy of needing stitches.
unfortunately, no pics... i wanted to, but i felt it was prudent to not draw unnecessary attention to my stupidity from my wife. i'm sure she'll notice the bandage on my finger sooner or later though. facepalm.
