Damned construction knifes ...

Time to learn slide.

Nice avulsion.


So, you can say you were in a knife fight.

Seriously, how did you do that?

Seriously, how did you do that?

Pushing down on a metal ruler to cut cardboard, blade slipped from lateral pressure on the ruler up unto my finger. a ¼ second thing.

Dumb. Never hold a ruler down from a cut.

 

[3bolt79]

Ouch

 

[GrandmaShreds]

Yikes! Hope that heals fast!

 

[PeteR]

It hurts just by looking at the finger...

It has been a week and yes. The booboo is pretty much closed and not hurting, but the finger end is bloated and sensitive. I played guitar a bit yesterday and it cracked open a bit.

Too late for that and it was bleeding like crazy when it happened, CA wouldn't have caught.

Now a big crust of half dead skin just peeled off, showing raw bleeding meat beneath. Next scab should be the good one.

That’s gonna leave a marke. I still have a scar on my finger from when I CUT IT WITH A KNIFE AT AGE 9. IM 55 NOW.

Late 1965, I'm either side of 4. Put my hand through a glass storm door window like we stupidly did in 1965. I can still find five <.5" cuts along currently ~7" of my arm.

I remember bits and pieces of the the ordeal. Also recall the photoshoot on the dining room table. My parents had a photographer to come out and setup. They even splurged for 3-D slides including the viewer.

 

[BGood]

As of now.

More than 2 weeks later, there was still a sliver (2-3mm thick) of flesh that didn't want to reattach and was very sensitive. Today I went to have it cut off. Should be OK in a few days ... I hope.

With my cervical pinched nerves problem, I get real clumsy with my hands and I tend to drop everything. I'm overly careful when I manipulate my guitars.
