Kershaw cryo 1555ti giveaway

Well, this one time I was about to use some super glue when i noticed the nozzle was all clogged and crusty with dried glue, so out comes the SOG Trident (I wasn't going to use one of my nicer knives for this task, lol). Unclogged the glue and away went the Trident. Moments later, I partially opened my Recon 1 and nicked my middle finger closing it one-handed; no blood, just took some skin off. Dunno if this counts 😁
 
I was at work showing my new ZT 0561 to some co-workers and just bragging about how smooth it was when closing and while showing them I didn't move my thumb and the blade fell right onto it. Yup, served right for acting like a douche lol. Didn't hurt but it was definitely a bleeder and that's the story of why i no longer act like show off.
 
i watched my friend slice about 3 inches of the top of his hand open so bad the super glue wouldn't stop the bleeding
 
Happened about a month ago...

Girlfriend picked me up kinda late at night and drove to the laundromat. I had just received a manix 2 in the mail before she picked me up and I hadn't gotten a chance to open it, so while she was dealing with laundry I opened it up and was admiring it. Turns out, dark car + knife isn't the greatest idea and I somehow ended up with the tip in my palm. She's piling laundry into a washing machine and I poke my head through the door, bleeding all over the sidewalk.

"Uhh.. Do you have any napkins or tissues in the car?"
"...What did you do now..."

I pinch it closed and we drive back to the appartment where I get lots of medical tape, gauze and butterfly bandages. Perks of having a nurse girlfriend I guess! I probably should've gotten stitches, but I went without them. It bled forever.

Best part is, we had called for some food pickup before we got to the laundromat, and they were closing soon, so we had to call them and explain that we would be late. Luckily the girl working was nice and waited after closing for us. :)

When I was first getting into knives, at around 12 years old ( A whopping 7 years ago!) My father introduced me into butterfly knives as he had one when he was younger. He ordered me a stainless handled Bear and Son 3" knife. I used that thing for a good two months or so without any issues. I learned how to quickly open and close it and all of that jazz.

My parents had to yell at me around bedtime because they could hear the click clack of me opening and closing it. Anywho, I lived across the street from a native american family that just moved in from Texas, they were all very well trained with knives and the younger boy that was around my age was throwing knives into a tree. I asked him if he would show me how to throw a knife and he explained all you do is hold the knife a certain way and release towards what you want to hit. He was just holding it by the handle and using an upward snapping motion with his wrist to get it to stick. I reluctantly tried it with my balisong...

Little did I know, I was much too close to the tree and I extended my arm too far. The knife stuck, but my finger slid right up the blade and cut me to the bone. I quickly went inside and covered it with a dishrag (white of course). I took the dish rag off and looked at my finger which started immediately gushing blood. After that my dad told me to hold on. He went and grabbed the super glue and pinched it off. It was really hard to do so, and it held just barely. It ended up with me going to the hospital to get a numbing needle in the tip of my right index finger, followed by 4 double stitched stitched in my 2nd knuckle.

I waited keenly for the stitches to come out and the wound to heal so I could flip again. Thank you for the opportunity, I am most definitely in.

Here is an interesting story.. not from a knife though, but its worth a read. So a few months back I decided to buy a replica gladiator sword. Don't ask why, because I don't know why. Well once I got it, like everyone else would do, I decided to test it out. I go to my local grocery store and buy 10 gallons of water (the kind in the milk jug) normally wouldn't have done this, but I was totally pumped to pulverize some plastic jugs. So imagine a young man, standing on his back porch, gallons of water set up in front of him on top of a table tennis table used for beer pong, with a huge gladiator sword strapped to his hip. And that's when it happened. I gripped the sheath and pulled the sword out, and in the process slid the blade across the palm of my had from end to end. Blood. Was. Everywhere. Immediately I run inside (bloody sword in hand) and search for the super glue. Super glue hadn't failed me in the past, and it wouldn't fail me now. I slowly started working from the corner of my palm, to the other cementing this canyon of a wound shut. But that's when I realized, I hadn't cleaned or disinfected the cut, whatsoever. Now this is where it gets really stupid. I decided it would be a good idea to re open the cut, clean in, then glue it shut again, that way I wouldnt have to go to the hospital in a week since it became infected. So of course I ripped the glue off like it was a wax strip on a large hairy mans chest. And once again, blood was everywhere. I took a while, but I once the flow of blood had died down a bit, I washed it off, disinfected it, and re-applied the super glue. About an hour later, (after cleaning up the bloody aftermath) I stayed true to my mission and did indeed slash and stab all 10 jugs of water.But anyway, the glue worked well, kept the wound clean and sealed while the cut closed and healed. Now, I know this seem's far fetched, and I don't blame you for being a skeptic, so I have included pictures of the aftermath. (No blood, 2 or 3 weeks after the cut healed *for the most part* but still looks fairly unpleasant) http://imgur.com/a/WpH50
Now, good luck to everyone who entered, I enjoyed sharing my story of epic survival, and hope you all get a kick out of it. That knife from what I have seen and heard this seems to be great knife, and I'd love to own it. (: Thanks,

P.S. This took longer than I thought to right, so if their are any grammatical errors or missing punctuation, you have my apologies.

Arriving tomorrow I'll take my time on the pics. It was much easier after I downloaded photobucket from Google play.
 
Ok, so I'm in then? Sweet, thanks. I can't think of a stupid thing I've done with a knife that makes a good story, but I've got a stupid thing I did with a goat story, if you care to read it. So, when I first got into keeping goats, I did not have enough fenced pasture land. So I would chain the goats to cinder blocks, and let them graze my un-fenced land. One of my goats was too strong for that, and dragged that cinder block around, and got into stuff she should not get into. So I chained her to two blocks. Problem solved, until she ate all the grass in that area. Two cinder blocks on a chain, with a goat on the other end, it's a bit of a pain to move. So I put the blocks in my kids wagon, and was going to pull it to a fresh spot. She spooked, and bolted past me yanking the blocks out of the wagon and into the back of my ankle. I thought it was broke, it hurt so bad.
 
well i had a incident last fall after my dad had his bucks skull laying in the garage and after a few months i decide to take off the skin and hair from the base of the antlers with a serrated folding knife and one slip and i had serrations in my pinky finger and being the young man i was i decided not to say anything but i had to take care of it myself. least to say with the help of super glue and tissues the problem was solved. thanks for the newbie giveaway. im in
