I recently bought a Spderco Tenacious. After reviewing some you-tube videos it seems like this knife has cut alot of people, as it did me tonight. This gave me a thought on which knife that I've owned cut me the most, it was a Kershaw Blur. How about you?
 
Buck Vantage. No clue why, but I cut myself everyone I use that knife for a day. Luckily, the cuts are always superficial and just into the top layer of skin (never deep enough to bleed).
 
Kershaw ET. Cut my fingers at least 3 times. I also plundged it into my thigh about an inch deep. Boy was that dumb.
 
That sounds intentional. Can't really think of a way that a knife would end up stabbing you that bad.
 
Kershaw Chive. It took me a while to get used to the assisted opening torsion spring, and that combined with the recurve blade caused many many shallow cuts.
 
Well Coldkill I had the bright idea that I would cut out a styrofoam wrist that I would mount on the handle bars of my road bike. Then I could strap my heart rate monitor watch on the styrofoam "wrist." like a moroon I started cutting the foam on my lap. The blade got a little stick going through, put little too much pressure, and it sliced right through right into my leg. Stupidest thing I've ever done with a knife.
 
Spyderco Salsa. The combination of weak detent, no closing bias and Cobra Hood gave it a nasty habit of coming open in my pocket. Usually my knives don't cut me unless I help, that one managed it three times without my cooperation.
 
Shun classic Santoku. I have a bad habit of sharpening it on a pocket stone far too short for it, and I get way too close to my fingers. Do it enough, and...oops.
 
My carbon #10 Opinel, after forcing a patina on it the pivot was like a bear trap, it would bite me every time I put it away.
 
I have been bitten by most of my knives but mot of the cuts aren't very serious.

I can't really say which one has "kissed" me the most but i did get cut several time with my case swayback jack, I wasn't really used to the size and the half stops so every once and again my index finger would to close to the bolster (When the blade is almost half-closed, the backspring presses the tang with a good amount of force) so before i could adjust my grip on the knife, it would "snap" onto the side of my index finger and bite pretty deeply. Happened a couple times in the same spot until i got used to the way the knife worked.
 
I can't say which specific one, but I get cut the most by closing slipjoints.
 
UKPK for me, always seemed to get me during closing, but then again, i have fat hands..... :rolleyes:
 
Was using a lansky kit the other day on a Pacific Salt and it popped out of the jig and almost cut the tip of my big toe off. Not life threatening but enough that the tip of my toe peeled off.
 
A Benchmade Griptillian. I have no explanation for it. It just does.
 
Old Buck cross lock. So many cuts over the years. Older brother had to have thumb surgery from his (lock failure).
