Aw Mer!!! After a while at Weirton Steel they didn't let ME have a knife because of accidents I had. :p

asfal;ksdfjalkj DON'T DO THAT!!

(the injury thing. The CSI was fucking balls amazing. But still. No to the injury)

Wait. Was it a utility knife or an xacto knife? Because this blade cuts both ways. *puts on sunglasses* *music kicks in with a YEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!*

[idadebeautreux]

There's a difference between a utility knife and an xacto knife? (other than one being a generic name and the other being a brand name)

Although I do get the David Caruso impression, lolololol!

I'm guessing they meant utility knife = box cutter, while xacto is a more refined tool for crafting. Just as sharp, or depending upon when you last changed the blade, even sharper, but generally easier to control.

Man, that had to hurt! I'm very glad that our sleuths didn't find a dead body. That would not only have been very messy, but some of us would have missed your smiling face too.

There's a bunch of blades for the xacto as well.

won't get fooled again!

DOH! Glad to hear it turned out okay... be careful with those things ;)

[idadebeautreux]

Will do! It didn't hit anything vital, and those blades are small enough that it won't do any really serious damage (not like a band saw or a table saw or something), but still... suprising amount of blood!

Ow!!!

You've been punctured!

(If it's any help, I have a scar on the back of one finger where I tried to cut it off with a box cutter years ago.)
