######WE HAVE A WINNER!! e dub CONGRATULATIONS. EVERYONE THANKS FOR THE STORIES. e dub CONTACT ME VIA EMAIL. debshomey@gmail.com!######



I have been so blessed in my life. I am giving away a Kershaw Cryo 1555ti. Since I am relatively new to the forum, I would like this to be for the newbies. Let's say 100 posts or less. Sorry vets read on and you will understand. It has been carried by me for about a month. It is in very good condition. Blade is perfectly centered and lock up is bank vault. It does have a spot of super glue on one scale. I cut the crap out of myself with it and had to super glue the cut to stop it from bleeding. I guess I went back to play with it to soon. It has character now, the spot is very small and light. If it bothers you the don't enter. Here's how it will work. I want to hear your blade and super glue story. Be honest be real. Entries will be accepted until Sunday June 22 at midnight. I will pick my favorite and announce the winner as soon as I can wade through them. I will contact the winner via email and post it to them at my expense. Let's have some fun. Remember it's that blade that bit you and you were basically a goof like me!

Not an entry. Thanks for doing a giveaway :thumbup:.

I have to ask, did you use the thumbstud when it bit you? I know mine has almost bit me or took off a small layer of skin (no blood) quite often when I used the thumbstud so I had to retrain myself to use the flipper. Weird considering I can use thumbstuds safely on practically every knife I have handled, minus the skyline which seem to be more of a decoration.
 
I don't think you should be putting superglue in a cut! Cool giveaway, but I hope I never have a story like that!

The blade bit me. I found the thumb studs as easy to use as the flippers. While not a newbie to knives, I carried many different blades on duty, since retired and found the forum so new to it. As for the super glue... Well what can I say. L
 
I was using a cheap folder to cut some carpet that we were tearing up and the liner lock on my Knife gave out and the blade snapped back and hit my hand. The knife was extremely sharp as I had just touched it up on my edge pro. It cut open my hand pretty good and my wife wanted to take me to the ER to get stiches. I refused and went and rummaged through the junk drawer and found the super glue. I had seen my cousin use super glue to seal a cut before so I figured what the hell. My wife held the cut together and I put the glue on. I let it dry and put a bandage on it. The super glue held and a week later the cut was pretty much healed up. Still have a scar but looks no worse than had I been stiched up. Plus I saved my self $250 for the ER visit. So I bought myself a new knife with the money I saved. At least that was my justification to get a new blade!
 
Really guys only one entry. Did I limit it to much. Let me know. This is a kick butt knife! I want some stories. We can't be the only goof balls out here.

I've got too many posts to enter. Too bad, I've been considering a cryo, too.
I don't have a super glue and knife story, but when I was about to graduate from high school, I superglued a pen to a table in the band room. Maybe they used a knife to remove it. I don't know.
 
Update..... It does NOT have to involve super glue. I used that as an example of really pulling a boner with your blade, not caring, and moving on. I can't and won't try to explain myself any further. Good luck if you enter! This should be fun. It's a free Kershaw Cryo folks.

No limitations in posts. Now open to veterans as well. C'mon people i'm giving away a kershaw cryo!!
 
Ha this is such a funny coincidence I sliced myself in the kitchen this monday cutting up a carrot for my lunch. I was running late for work so I super glued it together which didn't work very well. It's not healing very well and I'm thinking now that I should have got some stitches.
 
Cool idea!
A few years ago before me and my wife were married I talked her into going salmon fishing with me. I was straightening out some tackle and wanted to show off to my then girlfriend how sharp my knife was and in trying to cut the plastic tab off of the tackle box with a flourish using my leatherman and I proceeded to slice off the top of the skin from my index finger knuckle. Thankfully she was in school and was able to show off by using super glue to close my finger back up. Twelve years and three sons later the rest is history.
 
When I first bought my thermite, I was closing it with oil still bleeding all over the place. The slick steel lock side+oil+ not being used to speed safe caused the knife to slip in my hand while trying to overcome the spring one handed. I jerked to get my fingers out of the way and went with bonehead move number one, tried to catch it as it fell. Took a nice slice across an index finger knuckle.

That cut was super glued and glue was subsequently transferred to my thermite while using it to open the packaging for my Rat 1 not 5 minutes later. Looks like we're bonehead brothers on this one! :-)
 
6 stitches, to the bone, on my right pinky finger. Courtesy of a new Rat-3. I won't go into details, but it involved poor decision making. I went with the gauze and duct tape method at first, but it just would not stop bleeding. My brother called me a puss for not using superglue. I wasn't necessarily opposed to it, but didn't want to risk another poor decision.

I'm in. I'll try to be careful this time
 
Count me in! I've been wanting a Cryo, and am interested in a new G10 one, but this would save me the effort of sending it back if I don't like it. I might just love the all stainless one, or pass it on in my own giveaway with my new Kershaw experience!

My stories with knife cuts are almost all related to learning how to flip butterfly knives. A few of years ago, when I had a lot of time on my hands, I would spend an hour or three a day just practicing flipping my brand new Benchmade 51. I would keep a roll of fabric hockey grip tape around, and just wrap up my finger if it bled too bad. Sometimes I'd have four or five "bandages" on my hand at once, but I was just too addicted to perfecting each tricky maneuver and moving on to the next one. The nice part was that they'd protect me from future cuts from similar mistakes.
 
I might have too many posts to be valid, but I'll share a story here anyway.. About four years ago I was just getting into knives, but I got a benchmade Onslaught and thought it was amazing so got into folders.. A few weeks later, my spyderco endura and Kershaw Shallot arrived and I was thrilled with both. The shallot has a bit of a pointy tip and I picked it up off the coffee table, forgetting I had (over) oiled it the night before and dropped it. That lovely tip went cleanly through the leather of my anatech clog and into my foot just enough to stand straight up. coffe grounds stopped the blood, superglue closed it up. Haven't cut myself very badly since.
Also, when they came out I got a cryo and carried it until a friend of mine noticed it. He liked it, and didn't have another knife to carry, so I lent it to him. After a few months I told him to just keep it: he still likes it, but I still miss it. Very kind of you to do a giveaway!
