The title says it all. Feel free to show pictures.
The last time I cut myself was screwing around with a HAIR WHITTLING sak and since it was a slip joint the blade slammed shut on my right index finger. My finger wouldn't stop bleeding. Luckily I didn't end up with stitches (even though I probably needed them.) Let me know all of your stories.
 
Butterfly knife... grabbed the blade before it had left the handle.
 
last night as i went to change from pushing liner lock to getting thumb out of way i tapped my blade and it cut until it hit nail
 
Years ago I tried to open a clam shell package with a knife, and I cut forward towards my hand and stabbed the loose skin webbing part in between my thumb and pointer finger.

I bit myself with a Kershaw One Ton last week, just in front of the second knuckle on my left middle finger. It basically sliced a layer of skin almost off, but not quite. Bled a bit, but a Band-Aid was sufficient to get things back in order.
 
When I circumsized my pinky finger on a new ZT 561. No priest was present.

I had just taken delivery of the knife, opened it and rested the little sub-choil at the handle end of the edge on the first joint of my little finger. I rotated the knife around my finger for a good 180 close up inspection of the knife. Didn't feel a thing. It took about 30 seconds for it to start bleeding for an hour. Healed in two days because the cut was so clean.

I don't rest blades on my fingers for knife inspection anymore and I assume every knife I handle to be loaded.
 
First we must define "cut." Here are my personal knife injury categories:

Scratch: does not require a bandaid
Owee: requires a bandaid, but no stitches
Cut: requires stitches

I don't cut myself nearly as much since I developed this system.
My last cut was a few weeks back when my new
Bark River Golok slipped out of my hand and bit my index finger. Fortunately the contact was brief or I would have been missing a finger. Turns out the doctor who stitched me up was a Benchmade fan. We had a nice chat while he worked.
