I keep a bottle of superglue with me at all times. Keeps the cuts closed, provides a little protection and they heal very fast. Weird, but works like magic.

I have a Benchmade Mini-Barrage that was my EDC folder for a long time. It poked me good when I was opening some shipping cartons and of course, not paying attention.
I also have a Kershaw Whirlwind that cut the salesman who was showing it to me pretty good.

I was taking pictures of my Kershaw Leek the day I bought it when it slipped from my hand and sliced me...
Nothing big at all, just a "get to know you" cut.
Heh, nothing like a little cut to break the ice. My Benchmade Kulgera nibbled my palm a bit when closing it one-handed, and I've got a bunch of them on my middle finger from not moving it out of the way on various sheath knives.

Yeah, I never knew you could use real superglue. The doctor glued my last cut up with dermabond since it was right out on the tip and such a clean cut. I asked him if they sold it over the counter and he said that it was just sterilized superglue.
for my kitchen work i have usually been using this Cattaraugus kitchen knife's brother http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=320620063526&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSA:US:1123
very sharpenable. just a bare touch brings red stuff. i did just win the one from ebay! old school, handles/looks are not the best, but the one i have cuts like a dream. got my daughter a few times as well. i have many good quality knives but yet the catt. is the one that bites the most, by far.

I've all the standard small cuts that come with being a knife enthusiast. My ESEE cut me a week ago. Barely touched my hand but still drew blood. The worst was when we were having a potato peeling contest at my families house for thanksgiving a few years ago. Lets just say it was really hard to find the piece of index finger that looked like a potato peel. :barf:

i find that i find myself getting cut the day i get the knife. seriously i have never cut myself with a knife, unless it was the very day i got the knife. my izula seemed happier than me than my esee-4, which nearly took off my thumb ( sneezed while fondling )

I typically always have a small tube in my kits. I'll take a look at the cut tonight, if it still wants to open I'll be using the superglue.
Thankfully this cut left a flap of skin that will take to the superglue quite nicely.

Not my blood but a buddy of mine was playing with my four (when I wasn't there) and he managed to cut himself pretty bad. Took 8 stitches to get his finger right, I think he learned a valuable lesson that day; I keep my knives sharp : )
I had my ESEE 4 for about 5 months and was never bit once. I am a hard user and was quite impressed. Then I got cocky and bought an ESEE 3 and a custom kydex sheath. First draw from the sheath provided me with that few seconds of "Did I just...NO. I couldn't have..Wait for it...Yes I did just slice the crap out of my index finger."
Right to the bone. Ever since that day I make sure my PSK is with me !!

God what a mental picture this conjurs up (but I won't ask) . . .
Styx, (great user name by the way) I thought I was the only one who had a toe injury from a knife. I watched one of our steak knives slip out of my hands at the sink & go in directly behind my big toenail.
It seemed like it took 5 minutes for that knife to fall before it hit my toe, & it was like a dream and I could not move my damn foot out of the way. Luckly, only a puncture wound, no stitches, but oh did it
hurt the next 3 days . . . never offer to help with the dishes unless you have proper clothing & boots on . . .
Be safe.
That actually makes sense. I hit my leg on the bed and as i was grabbing it I let go of the knife and it fell straight across my toe. Only negative thing of having a sharp knife on you before the morning coffee
