Glad your ok and did not lose something more important! It is always good to go and eat ice cream after a visit to the E.R something in the ice cream helps. I eat a lot of ice cream. And you will always have a great story, nurses always tell me women love scars I think it's something they just say. GREAT job Frankie on your nursing skills. /// PEACE
Glad you're okay. One time I cut myself badly because I was carving a hiking staff and started laughing at something (slipping off and slicing myself). At the Emergency Room, when my wife wasn't in the room, they asked me if everything was okay (domestically) and really pressed on me to make sure the wound was a self inflicted accident. ~ LoL
I got into the habit of always taking my pocket knife out of my pocket when home for the evening. Not only to avoid a possible oops moment such as yours, but to also may sure it doesn’t get tossed in the washing machine! Be careful y’all!
I can't tell you how many times I've cut myself over the years, probably had stitches 6 times maybe. Nearly cut my left thumb off, with the blade of my MiniBuck tool. Just glad to hear you both are okay. Thanks for the update and for letting everyone know you're still doing what you do.
I carried a tip up button lock in my pocket. I was riding my Harley and hit a bump. Apparently that was enough to pop out the blade a bit. I got home and put my hand into my pocket to get my keys and the very sharp blade cut the tip on my thumb and right through the nail like butter. I feel your pain. Carry on!
I cut myself with 3 different knives in less than a week. None required stitches, and they were all fixed blade knives. Esee 6, Cold Steel mini Tac Tanto, and a Tramontina machete were the blood getters. 😆 Superglue works well for stopping blood loss on small cuts. Just make sure the wound is clean before sealing it up with glue. Amazon sells butterfly closures fairly cheap. Something like 7 dollars for 100.
Tip up! I worry about getting cut or poked through the pocket so I won't buy a folder that won't have the blade held closed in my pants. It's a deal breaker for sure. Glad you kept the leg.
(^^^) This - I really couldn't care less if a clip is TU or TD. But, when the blade comes open by itself - even a little (obviously), it becomes dangerous, imo. If it's mine, it's probly time to either repair, retire and/or replace it. If it's not mine, I won't buy it
when one is young and dumb, one gets a few scars. in some places they do not fade away strange enough. have a 50 yo scar between my thumb and index finger. ten others all over has just been kind and said goodbye, but this fella, no ;)
Dang buddy those are real ones, the last time it happened to me it was 6 stitches ( small but deep). First William of Williams knife live, now you, As i told William they can get sneaky sometimes. But really sooner or later it happens, it happens to us all so it seems.
I also got a small cut from a Case fixed blade last night. All knives, no matter what the type, can cut you. I'll be 67 this month, so I could blame old age, but it was just me being careless each time.
Ya it’s been awile I miss your videos glad your ok 👍 I’ve gotten stitches a few times I just tell my wife I’m Off the emergency room again lol she just rolls her eyes
Isn't this your business/lively hood? And if so, wouldn't that put this firmly in the realm of an "industrial accident?" Sounds like a job for OSHA and years of litigation to me... Sorry, guys. (I'm just glad you guys don't collect vintage lawn darts...) *smirk😏
Ouch ! ouch ! ouch ! ouch ! I cut my hand grabing my pm2's blade. It was open. In my backpack and I reached for it. I WONT BE DOING THAT AGAIN ! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha I have never had a knife open in my pocket ? That is a strange phenomenon 😮?
I was looking for your most recent videos yesterday (3/31/2024) and noticed none published in 3 weeks, now this. You are very fortunate a little to the left or right, would be a whole different story. You would have been yelling to get a bag of ice,😮, they can stitch it back on. Now, about the video on Dicks sporting, you think they were listening 😂. Seriously, glad you’re okay. Peace!
I’ve got scars all over my body from different types of cutting implements. Twice I’ve had a run in with table saws. Razor knife cut scars like crazy and knife cut scars as well. One of my fingers is crooked because I cut a tendon for it. Both legs have multiple scars when a knife slipped and I sliced into my leg. Palm of one hand has multiple scars from knife or razor knife cuts. But I’ve never gotten stitches. I always used super glue and paper towel. Whiskey makes a great painkiller too. Get to feeling better dude!! Glad you didn’t reach room temp.
I did it his once with my Manix 2. I didn't get stitches but probably should have. It split my finger tip down the middle. To this day, I rarely carry that knife anymore, but I still carry my other manix knives.
Good morning Bird and Frankie. I have seen this before and seen this before and seen posted videos of this kind of issue. Pulling up pants or shorts a weak detent is usually responsible as once the blade past the detent and then the bad part ensues. I have had some cut issues when I was on blood thinners (not a smart hobby to be into LOL!) Stop bleeding products are a smart thing to have on hand. Glad your injury wasn't worse and glad you can talk about in the past tense so openly. BTW I had a feeling you were in good hands with Nurse Frankie (are you Nurse Jackie's Cousin) Love you guys Glad all is well😼
Ouch! Glad y’all are back and Bird is recovering. Had a knife open in my pocket and stab my leg (Buck idk the model). Luckily it wasn’t as bad as that!
That’s impressive. I myself always put my knife of the day in my valet tray at night. With no alcohol I highly doubt you’ll drop your pants for me in Atlanta huh? 🥺👎🏼
Sorry to hear this you should be a bit more attentive with knives. I cut myself only once closing a slipjoint that had a very narrow blade and was very sharp but nothing major. Glad you're ok. By the way since you're american I hope you had an insurance.
“Looks worse than it is, got a bunch of stitches” Not sure how getting a bunch of stitches can look much worse??? lol Glad you guys are ok though. Welcome back.
The same thing happened to me a few years back. We were in the mountains on a river. I stepped out of my camper and stuck my hand in my pocket and zipped my middle finger open. There was a lot of blood. Luckily my friend had been a military medic and he fixed me up. Glad he was with us. Then back to fishing.
Glad it was just a break, crappy was to get time off though? And yes, being a fairly new sub, I was indeed wondering what was up? My knife goes on the night stand next to me and my other EDC when I go to bed that way I know right where it's at
That is why I don’t like tip up pocket knives. They are all the rave and everybody seems to like them now but I never have a tip down the knife is much safer for the user. I did the exact same thing except I put my hand in my pocket and the knife had opened since then I only have tip down Which is inconvenient because most people make their knives tip 😢up now because it’s popular.
Gotta get rid of that knife now. It has a taste for blood, it'll keep coming back for more. Glad you are ok! Question: was it a factory sharp edge or a Bird sharp edge?
One more thing! I had one of my knives open up in my pocket like that one did. Fortunately, I just felt the edge with my hand and didn't cut myself! Can happen to any of us!
I cut myself with my Esse Izula the day it came in the mail. I have a scar in the same place as Frankie! Ouch! Be careful with that one. Still a little anxious every time I pick it up.
I heard that to summon a demon you have to offer blood and then call them by their real name 😈 just kidding we know Frankie is a Angel 😇 Glad you are healing up 🔪🪵
From the hospital 🤦🏻♂️Holy Shi+. Well, I’m sorry you got injured but that really was a freak accident. Glad Frankie was there!!! That was a sharp blade. 😬
Oh wow. That’s why. Was wondering what happened. That’s a story I have heard before BTW and that’s why I never ever leave a knife in a pocket when I put away my pants. All the best, Bird and „well done“, Frankie.
Good clean cuts from a good sharp edge. Going to heal faster that way too. But good that you didn't try to just take care of it at home, lots of people do that and they are silly for doing that.
My worst cut was actually with a mandolin slicer (not a knife), I was cutting thick potato slices (1/4 inch).when my hand slipped, I sliced a chunk off my thumb (to the bone)…blood everywhere. My poor wife was 7 months pregnant with twins and had to take me to the ER…LOTS OF STITCHES LOL
Spent 30 minutes sharpening a knife on my wicked edge until it was razor sharp. Had the knife in my right hand as I pushed up from the chair. It buried itself an inch into my calf and I didn’t even feel it. I felt the blood dripping down my leg. The only awkward part was going to the hospital to explain that I had stabbed myself, but they did not need to consult psychiatry. Let me explain…
I have had a couple different flippers do that to me, not as bad, but I got lucky. Also had some knives with weak detents clipped to the wrong part of the pocket (so the edge/side of pocket doesn’t help keep it closed) get me before too. Probably a good idea to always remove the knife from the pocket before you take the pants off. So that its checked and set correctly before you pull the clothes on, then you can put it in correctly after being dressed.
Josh Balay (Jimislash) hates the Kershaw Blur. Every time he opens his up, he winds up cutting himself. I had a bad experience with my ZT 0450, but adjusted the detent to correct the problem. Just remember...be safe when playing with stabby stuff.
