Well, maybe stupid is as stupid does. But sometimes people just get in a hurry and make poor choices.
One day I was cutting a ziptie at work. I used my Benchmade knife instead of a box knife because they are tough. Should have used scissors or wire cutters, but then I would have had to walk to get them. So even better, I cut down with the knife.
I didn't even feel it when I stabbed myself. I thought that the knife just slipped off. I looked down at the knife and thought, "why is there grease on this knife?"
It was fat from my leg.
There was a small blood spot on my workpants. Then when I put 2 and 2 together, blood just gushed out and started soaking my sock.
Scary stuff. Learned a couple of lessons.
The picture doesn't do the bruise justice. The pressure bandage that I put on it is why there is purple line below the wound. I think that I was incredibly lucky to have stabbed myself with a 3-1/2 knife and only nicked an artery with it.
