A few days ago I grabbed my Old Hickory 12" butcher knife and went out to the row of bushes outside. There were some dead limbs that needed to be trimmed. Anyway, I was changing hands with the blade, here's the mistake. As I pinched the blade with my left hand, I started taking the lanyard off my right. It was my thumb that decided to stay in the lanyard as I pulled my hand away. The blade shifted down as I accidentally pulled on the lanyard. Somehow, the blade cut the same finger in two places.
Neither cut was bad, but I still can't figure out how I got cut in two different directions, on the same finger?
