I've just been 'bitten' by a Trekker

[Taxi Dad]

Victorinox serrations do a mean job on human skin !

[Gareth]

Ouch.   Is it a flesh wound?  In need of stitches?  Or have you taken your whole arm off?

[bmot]

They do always look as great flesh-cutters to me, indeed...


So, what did we all learn today? 

[Dtrain]

I have watched the serrations on one of my OHT's and my Rescue Tool zip trough Steak and Boneless Western Ribs so I'm figuring a Finger would not be much of a problem Hope your OK

[Smashie]

You beat me to it, still waiting for the Rescue tool to sever something!

[Taxi Dad]

i'll live 
not that bad, I just wasn't getting much sympathy here

i'd be safer with a pet crocodile than a Rescue tool, it had to go !

[Metaleer]

Where are the pictures of the carnage? 

Just kidding. 

[Taxi Dad]

i'm quite impressed really, the blade must have been well sharpened I didn't feel it happen !
stings a bit now though

Omnomnom Vic?


And don't forget to post in the 'what are we eating today' thread, then

[Syph007]

 

That's another reason I prefer plain edge.   The wood saw also does good damage.

Did you put a hex on it, Kirky?

[Zed]

The sidekicks serrated blade cut me the first time i opened it,first time ive been cit by this blade.what is this sympathy you talk of michael 

[Nhoj]

The wenger can opener keep biting me. Maybe I should stop playing with knives. One of the times the can opener cut my finger to the bone.

Somebody clip a corner off his totin chip......I have had a run in with Vic blades before....cut away from you....thats all I am saying.

Also had a run in with this tool that attaches to a 10,000 rpm angle grinder......not a good idea in hind sight http://www.katools.com/shop/lancelot-tooth-chain-blade-p-51.html  a few weeks back.....sure got my attention. Lets just say the tool is now for sale.....and I had to visit the ER and destroyed all the upper body layers I was wearing at the time the sweatshirt I was wearing possibly saved my life stopping the blade as it barely scratched my chest......I still break into sweats thinking about how close that was....

I would imagine that could give one quite a NICK 
over my many years on this planet I have cut myself more often than I care to admit, with all manner of 'tools'.I've been lucky and never done anything to major or disfiguring. I probably could have chosen a better hobby than Multitools & SAKs (is there a name for our affliction? maybe we need one ?  time for another thread  )
joking aside, Wonderwolf go careful with that beast. I gather you ruined your 'underwear' that day as well as the *upper body layers* of clothing ?

Well, there is Moria (yes like LOTR Mines of Moria), its greek and means "foolishness" (What was Tolkien thinking when he gave the dwarfen mines that name???). Yes, yes I know Moria aka "Witzelsucht" is not an exact match

You don't need serrations to slice human skin!
A nice sharp knife will slice flesh with ease!

My sharp Mora knives:


Don't look if you have a problem with the sight of blood:

Gotta be careful with sharp knives!

[Monrogue]

My OHMasterRT blade came super sharp right out of the box, so I know what you mean.  It has sliced through anything I've cut with it like it was nothing.  I would hate for it to meet my finger or anywhere else with any considerable force

[Cupboard]

I've looked at those angle grinder chainsaw things in the past - they look bloody dangerous to me.

[firiki]

Oh, they are dangerous. I'm not fond of combo edge blades or serrations at all. However, I keep my 2010 Vic Soldier because this pattern works very well for me when I need it to. Frightens me every time, too.

Make you a deal on one    I've gone back to using my ZERO kick carbide wheel...just takes longer
