| oh i have cut myself many times before, doing many different things.
the strange thing is im a chef and have been fro the past 5 years, and iv only ever cut myself with a knife whilst cooking, in 5 years....twice!
many other time though, usually doing stupid things.
i have a scare (along with scars from the stitches) on my left index finger going from half way accross to half way down from when i was about 7...trying to open a packet of biscuits with a 10" carving knife! (nice trip to casulty that was...one ruined tea-towel!!) lol
(i remember the triage (however you spell it) bent it down as far as she could and asked "does that hurt"...if had been older than 7 i dont know what i would have said!!!)i guess it was to see if i had severed any nerve endings.not quite...hit the bone though!!!)
another bad one is on my right arm...you have to try and picture this one....
my brother was pissing me off and pretending to threaten me with his swiss-army knife. so i had a halloween pitch fork in my right arm, and my swiss-army knife in a horizontal "slashing" hold in my let arm. As i lunched at him with the pitch fork the main blade of my swiss-army knife whent straight into my upper right arm!
my parents were out and i thought i would get in trouble for playing with my knife so i just put a plaster on! suprisingly it didnt bleed much...left a nice scar though!!!
(The 1st picture is of my finger, the flash was too bright so i have had to draw on how the scar roughly goes, and the 2nd is of my right arm, i have circled the scare...no imagine a 3x0.5" blade sticking in that!!!)
