Dropped Skeletool

Lucky you hadn't just put the new floor in huh?  Also good the blade tip survived.   :D
I've dropped mine onto linoleum and it's left it's mark.  I usually manage to get my feet
out of the way before it hits the floor though which is a good thing.  :'(

Yeah this is original hardwood I would have been upset if it wouldve hit my foot because its sharp as hell and dug in the floor quite well.

We just remodeled last winter. My wife would have preferred that it hit my foot. :(
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools

just gives the floor more character....like the bullet hole in my dads bathroom wall.
Now you'll have a good story to share and the mark to prove it.


To greatgrandkids......Over here is where i almost lost a big toe to a bloodthirsty multitool back in the fall of '09.

I was oiling and polishing one of my swords last year and accidentally dropped it.  Landed a bit like your Skeletool up there but much deeper.  It missed my foot by about 2mm.  That could have been a fun trip to the emergency department.
