Everyone can attest to the old saying that... a sharp knife is safer than a dull one. BS!!!

I was hurrying to make a couple wingbone turkey calls from my recent harvest, and my pocket knife cut my thumb open like a warm stick of butter. Dammit!!! Had to have my wife bandage me up 4 times before finished, then pre and post shower. I am a diesel mechanic with leather like hands. So it takes major damage to make me nervous.

I enjoy and take pride in sharpening knives with my Work Sharp Ken Onion Edition belt sharpener. Razor sharp is an understatement. Be careful!!!

Sharpened up a friend's knife several years ago. First thing he did was go to the emergency room for stitches.

Used to a dull blade, he ran his thumb along the edge to see how sharp it was. SMH.

Lol. On the mend now.

My hands look like a horror movie with all the damage they have endured over the years.

Correct, I've been cut with some sharp stuff, and if I get the pieces back together quickly, they are grown back together within a few days.
