[Invoice]

These three today.

That is a beautiful knife, Gev. You know a knife is good when wildlife overcome their natural fear to take a look!

Thanks for your kindness, Dean ! Hope your Sunday is wondrous

Took this shot and my 7 year-old asked me to take a picture of his knife. I turn around and he’s tearing off into the house and leaving a bloody pocket knife behind. A couple of hours and five stitches later:

It was a deep cut but not to the tendons, thank God. I had just passed his knife across my honing rod a few minutes earlier. Good thing because it was a very clean cut and bled very little, surprisingly.

That sucks but glad he didn’t do real damage. Lucky kid as it looks deep.

I do thank you for posting it as I just showed the stitch pic to my 5 year old daughter who is always bugging me to use my knives. She said “yuck” and also that maybe she’ll use scissors until she’s 10.

Ouch! Glad to hear that's not any deeper We've all done it, something of a right of passage

A case medium stockman in amber bone and CV, with punch instead of a spey.

If there's a bright side to this, he'll have a cool scar that the girls will like, and he will now know to be aware always where his edge is. We've all been there. Welcome to the brotherhood.

Thanks! He’s had a few scars already—does everything 100mph, but this was the first that scared even him.

Sorry he (and you) had to go through that, but we have ALL done it. It happens. Hopefully didn't scar Mom too much.
I never learned a lesson unless it was the "hard way".

Mom took it well considering. She was nervous until we found out it was only going to be stitches. Thanks for the kind words!

That is quite a cut for a boy. You didn't mention if you had heart palpations when you saw it.

I thought it was a small slice until I saw it close up and could open it and see flesh protruding. Then my heart was beating!

Love this!! I think my 7-year old self would’ve said the same thing. My mom, on the other hand, would have said otherwise!!

I think he’ll want a knife again. Like all of us, once the pain is gone only the memory remains. Hopefully he’ll be more careful and follow dad’s instructions about proper safety.

The wise learn from the mistakes of others!

I was very thankful his tendon wasn’t cut. He’s cut himself before whittling sticks and cutting vines, but this was the first deep one and the first that scared him.

Thanks for all the kind words fellas!

Yes indeed, hope he doesn't have any others that need stitches

I'm glad it wasn't a more serious injury.

I'm home sick with a cold this weekend, so I'm carrying Grandpa's sparkly little Peanut around the house.

Thanks r8shell and I hope you feel better soon yourself.

Stockman lover. A man of a kin heart hehe.

 

[Pt-Luso]

Pt-Luso , your red bone mini trappers are sensational!! I can see why you like them so much.

Many thanks Mr. GT...

 

[Pt-Luso]

After a week with Case XX mini trapper (which I really like), I had to feel it again in my hands (sorry guys for the repetition), the knife I most appreciate (not neglecting TC) in my collection for several reasons:
1º - because it is GEC.
2º - because it has a stainless steel blade.
3º - because he has hands in stag.
4º - because I appreciate # 73.

Yeowtch! Glad to hear it wasn’t worse.

I am glad that you taught him well, and he didn't take off running with the knife. That could have ended very differently.
Glad he is ok, and now he has a new knife story.

 

[black mamba]

Nice triumvirate, Invoice, I seem to recognize a couple of those!

Well, but not well enough it seems! Thanks for the kind words. He does have the story and the full use of his hand to live with, and that’s fine by me.

Lots of projects, a little working in the garden today with my new Sodbuster by Mitchell knives. Crazy lightweight due to the g10 liners.
