Maybe I'll try it next time I make slaw.“Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.” ― Philip K. Diçk -

And that is exactly what that is for - slice/shred cabbage for slaw or to make sauerkraut.
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

yep, been there. Father's Day 2013....Sliced my finger with a slip on my Alton's Angles Shun knife. A brief break and a few stitches later....good to go. Wouldn't change my Shun knives for anything else though. It was my fault.

After reading all of the different responses, I'm speechless. I don't know whether to grin or grimish. I hope the wound heals quickly.

I can't get past the knife through the foot... I cringe every time I think about it.Coleman, Texas
Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...

I am very sorry to hear that. Do everything the doc says; that's crucial. Now, I will relate this similar, true story that is so bizarre you'll think I made it up. At least 20 years ago my wife and I had this nice young lady coming over every other week to clean our house. During one of her visits my wife noticed quite the bandage on her, I believe, left thumb. Believe it or not…a Ginsu door-to-door, knife salesman had come by her place and in trying herself to easily cut thru frozen meat, as the salesman had just demonstrated, she completely lopped off her thumb right below the top knuckle joint. The company paid for her medical needs, but, as my wife remembers, the poor girl sadly had neither the savvy nor the money for a lawyer and signed an agreement that only got the thumb reattached, not the nerves. Yep, the company somehow finagled a way not pay for the nerve reattachment aspect of the surgery. No punchline, folks, this is a TRUE story. Now that I think about it, you can’t, as the saying goes, make ‘em up this good.

I'll spare you the gruesome pics until it heals up but I have never suffered a cut as bad as this one. My thumb is totally squared off and it ain't growing back. Never would have happened with a nice fat ribeye.
For those of you who have been following along, this is the same knife that basically pinned Janell's foot to the kitchen floor when she dropped it the day we bought it.

1969 in military was a scout dog handler,my dog in picture with me wacked out one day and thought my hand was a steak .Took a chunk off end of left index finger (if it was right side ,my trigger finger, might of been sent home) and punched a hole in vein at back of hand . Had to soak hand in Physohex for three weeks every day at aid station to keep out infection ,dog bites can't be sewn . End of finger can be real tender when it gets screwed up .One bright side of that experience is that it kept me out of the field for three weeks .Like others have said make sure it does not get infected .Two years after getting home don't know if it was coincidence or not but ended up with a raging infection that started in that same hand and went through my body for three years .Make sure you take care of it now .Even ended up in isolation for a week in hospital,doctors had no idea what it was .I think dog left me a souvenir .

Approx 10 years ago I was replacing some rotted RB&B paneling around our chimney when I got nicked using a small battery powered Ryobi circular saw. The 6 inch blade (which was way over exposed for the depth of cut I needed) caught me right dead center of my left thumb -- high, upper part of thumbprint and busted thru very top of thumbnail. A shallow tear (blade was of course dull), but, man, did it smart. Even though you'd never know it to look at the thumb today, there is a dead spot from nerve damage...very slight but it's still there. The dead spot used to be much bigger but most of the feeling gradually came back. Took probably five years. See how much better you feel with all this input from your support group on the forum? Don't mention it; that's what we're here for.Beef...It's what's for dinner tonight.
