As I get older and my RA gets worse, I'm tending to have more little cuts/nicks when using my knives.
I'm surprised. With the new meds (Humira, Enbrel, etc) I thought they were able to manage RA pretty well these days.  :(

I take Sulfazine. My Rheumatologist advised me to try and stay on that for as long as I can. It's an old drug from the 50's and the risks and side effects are well documented. It still works ok so I stay on it. The next level up in treatment brings additional risks and side effect. I'll wait as long as I can. Have minor loss in dexterity and some joint pain but it's the fatigue that is the killer for me.

Lloool.

It's nothing serious, just scratches. It's just a bit annoying and it's already getting fun ...  :D  :facepalm:

It's just the damn Buck again and me not quite used to its blade being "drawn" back into place when closing  :facepalm: 


My father was into firearms, though, so you never know :D

Maybe you should wrap your fingers in bandaids before deploying the blade. I kid. :)

i can't remember the last time I cut myself so uh...err...  :P Depending on which spyderco you want, it might not be as naughty. :think: I was thinking maybe you should get a bigger knife.. So
Your fingers have more area to move... But then that means it's bigger... A bigger blade to cut you :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh

Yeah, that's sort of why I prefer liner locks to lock backs. I like all the moving of very sharp blades to be done by me, not by the knife itself lol.

Exception being the Buck 110, cuz, well, it's the Buck 110
I'm a total legend..... in my own mind- Herley

My smartphone is not MTO-friendly. The screen doesn't react when I have a band-aid on my finger. SIGH.

Ok, two questions:

1) are they really big enough?

2) did you really buy enough?

:D
