Thread: When styptic won't cut it.

this was closed with duct tape. The cut was near to the bone.

Just be sure you flush and disinfect before sealing with SG.

Oh yeah man, ya gotta try shaving while camping. Something about tying a strop up to a tree next to the camp fire that just makes you feel EPIC. :-)

Good God, this thread reminded me of an awful story from years past.

This fell I grew up with had a slipjoint pocket knife, I think it was a SAK or maybe a Case, and at the time we were young and trying to impress each other, but it had a STRONG backspring. He closed it on the tip of his thumb and cleaved off a nice little morsel, minus a small little flap of skin. He glued it back on with some CA, not wanting to tell his pops because he was afraid he'd get the knife taken away, and it "healed", but a few weeks later, the chunker fell off.. It never healed back together, but rather just kind of died.

Since then, if I have a "hanger", I use Neosporin, telfa, and tape.

I tried to get my boss to order some clear Duct tape for "Professional looking repairs!"

He didn't go for it.
