Don't do this at home ...... (don't look if you're squeamish warning)

I feel your pain
Took the top half of my thumb off From the top of the first knuckle) 9 yrs ago
on an industrial rip saw : :

 

jesus h....even though i saw the warning...yuk.
i saw my late father almost chop a finger off with a knife in the kitchen once....he never swore kept calm flapped it back together and drove me and him to hospital...i was about 4....ouch

 

Ouch! Did you cry?

I hope you smashed the knife up with a hammer to teach it who's boss.

 

The first pic was a teaser! I agree it looks beyond the scope of the universal workshop first aid kit, aka the Roll of masking tape... that looks nasty.

You're in the running for best injury this year.........!@*# still 51 weeks to go for me to come up with something!

 

nice ,love a good work injury... 8)

 

Ouch - won't be able to pick your nose for a while... >

 

Dont use the pointy end of a folding knife to make holes.
For me I was trying to make a hole in a printer ink cart to refill it, knife closed on the joint of my index finger. Looks like I got away lightly in comparison, but it did bleed alot.

 

I fell of a bike once when I was a kid and ripped my knee open as I landed on an old rusty house door lock. A rusted piece of the lock stuck into my knee and as I stood up the weight of the lock kept it on the ground and sliced more of my knee open as a result. I remember my mother carrying me into the house and pouring salted warm water onto the area. I screamed and a neighbour came round to see if I was OK.

What was it about salt and wounds for gawd's sake?!

 

hope its feeling bit better , nightmare place too, right on the end of that finger ,suprising what you use it for :-

 

One word - BLEUGH!

how the 'ell is that going to heal? and how long will it take?
