Wow! That doesn’t look like much fun. Hope everything heals up properly and soon.

Yikes, you took quite a swing at the parsley with that thing! Hope it heals soon!

Thanks very much. Lessons learned:
1. Don't drink and garden.
2. Get those stitches right away.

I'll be fine, but it would have been better to have gone to the ER sooner. And always cut away from yourself!

I remember hearing: "¡Apaga la luz!" ("Turn off the light!" If I left a room without turning off the light.)

I could live with that, even in English. What I really didn’t want to hear was

“This is going to hurt me a lot more than you”.

Great Bowie knife!

Super Buck!

Oh man! I hope it’s a mere flesh wound, and no tendons!
BTW, I know you grow parsley, but yesterday’s photo had me fooled~ thought it was cilantro.

I don’t drink alcohol, so won’t comment on that, but you’re supposed to pull the weeds, root and all ~ not cut them!

They did take X-rays, and just bandaged me up and gave me a tetanus shot, so I think I'm okay. In retrospect, I was actually cutting the flowering tops off of the parsley...and not very focused. Thanks for your thoughts, and congratulations on your new 77OT!

Thanks very much Jack. I'm mostly just embarrassed. The splint is to remind me to be extra careful for a few days--and to get out of work!

I never heard that from my father! Or my mother, for that matter.

Thought I'd go with this early GEC 23 iteration as I've seen so many cool versions, lately!

Thank you JJ. The knife, shield, and jigging are spectacular. Great photo.

I was looking through some penknives last night, and marvelling at this lovely Ulster, gifted to me by my dear friend @herder a while ago.

That’s a pretty thing, Jack.

Thanks, Harvey.
Your brace of Barlows is outstanding!

Thank you GT.

I'm grateful to you for posting that, Harvey.

And I meant it.

Hope you heal quickly, Dave.

An old Case barlow,1978 I think.CV blades and built like a tank.

 

[Reaper AL]

I dropped one of these case sow belly. Really like this pattern and also like CV steel just wasn’t in love with the covers so off to @jsdistin for recovering and a bullet shield. They are perfect. One is mine and one for each of my grandchildren.

Favorite knife of the day. Beautiful!

Well...if you are going to maim yourself with a pocketknife, might as well be a TC Barlow! Way to wound yourself with some class!
