Cut myself again on my hand using a Stockman ..... dang that hurts! Blade closed under pressure. You would think by now I would know how to use that type of knife. I'd had better stick with a locking blade knife for now on because my job is a high pressure one

Edit:

TIP: Don't ever use a non-locking knife when sticking it using pressure, into an object!

Well I've cut myself twice using my Sebenza since I've had it....in the same place on my finger....when the first cut was just about healed. I don't think it will happen again though. I've just about whittled away that bit of my finger that kept getting cut.

It does feel better though, cutting yourself with a better quality locking knife....but I think I'm going back to my Kershaw as my "fiddle" knife...I can't afford the blood right now.

That sounds kind of masochistic there Roj..

Did the Sebenza lock fail, or did you cut yourself some other way? I have 2 sebenzas, one for almost 3 years now and I've never experienced a lock failure, even when using the knife as an ice pick or driving the point into wood by pounding on [what would be] the pommel.
 
No the lock hasn't even thought about failing. I just managed to brush the side of my trigger finger right below the nail against the blade just enough to remove a little flap of skin and bleed like heck. My own stupid fault. I was just assing about opening and closing it trying to get used to the slightly different action between my Sebbie and the one handed opener I used to carry...(a little tanto combo blade Kershaw that wasn't even close to as sharp)
 
Titanium,
Get yourself an Axis lock Benchmade, and don't look back. Try the 710 in M2 steel.
You could get one for $130. You'll have it the rest of your life.
 
Well....pocket knives are convenient, but when you grow up, get a fixed blade. It's easier on your fingers.

Of course there is always a balisong, those are easy on your fingers and the handles of the BM 42 are titanium.

You're right, we would think that.
While I appreciate the tip ("Don't ever use a non-locking knife when sticking it using pressure, into an object!"), this is something I learned and learned well when I was around 10. What's that saying? Knives don't cut people, people cut people.
 
I was looking at the recurved tip on my Matriarch the other day, thinking how sharp it was and how delicate. Well for some reason I panicked and pulled the knife away from my thumb in a hurry. DOH! It snagged the inside of my thumb and I got a deep 1 inch cut...
