Bitten by the bug literally

I was being stupid not watching something I was cutting well as the cut went through it also went through my thumb :/.

Hurts like **** missing some my thumb now.

Pictures are gruesome beware.

That was a love bite and you should feel happy. If she wanted you to have stitches... you would have them.

Maybe Spyderco's advertising department should take that into account...

Its amazing how being even careless in the slight can cause a nice slice right through our precious dermis. I was cutting paracord when I was making a bracelet the other day and I just tapped the side of my finger with my Dragonfly2 and it gave me a cut 1/2 cm deep and 2 cm long, Just the slightest tap on my finger! my UKPK hasn't tasted my blood yet, but I'm sure it longs for the moment I will be careless enough to let it close on my fingers when cutting something.

That's a clean cut. What knife was it?

I'm scared of the day my knives try to bite me.

My Endura went in and stuck into the bone, and took out a nerve with it...

Poured liquid bandaid on it and wrapped it with about 20 band aids, cause the gf were heading out for burgers. Welp, she wouldn't shut up when I bled through all of them, so Urgent Care we went. Seeing the bone was neat.
