Just a safety reminder,we usually get hurt doing a mundane task.Yesterday out in my shop I was opening a box of wielding rod.It was a new box and one of the plastic hard to open boxes.They put a thin clear tape over the seam and it's a pain to get off.While holding the box with my left hand I was trying to get the blade of my pocket knife under the tape and I applied to much force and drove my knife about a inch and a half into my left hand.Bled like a stuck pig and the shop looked like a murder scene.Applied lots of pressure and made sure my thumb and fingers all worked and had feeling.Elevated with pressure for about 20 min after cleaning then super glued it shut.I'm so thankful I didn't hit a tendon ! It was a good reminder to slow down !
