It was a nice day for me and decided to make a veggie soup because it's been weeks since I made the last one.
While busy cutting carrots I accidentally cut my thumb. I'm glad it wasn't sharp or I could have blood all over the cutting board, it still hurt though.
I was thinking of buying a new knife, glad I changed my mind.

I agree @Nawsheen didn't think this was going to happen to me. Maybe next time I might need a sharper knife.

I bought it last year but it's not the best quality @ridingbet well, I guess it's a rusty now because it didn't went through the skin entirely.

@Letranknight2015 if it is rusty, and it cut your skin lightly, i hope you washed that wound and let it bleed. tetanus bacteria is present in rusty objects. that is why i asked if it was risty.

You get used to one knife that is how I am at tleast.
This one I have is not too sharp either and I don´t like to sharpen them up.
Glad you did not cut yourself too badly.

@Letranknight2015
I use a small black one for that kind of thing.
I know if I overdo it it can cut me pretty sharp so I just take it easy.
You will find one that suits you and stay with it.
I only have one.

Hello @lovinangelsinstead21 I actually tried to sharpen up some of the old knives but still they weren't that sharp to cut a tomato. I must be doing it wrong.

Sometimes there are benefits to things like that. I know when I am behind a car in traffic that is going slow, I tell myself that maybe there is a reason, like maybe if I would be going faster there would be an accident.

Hello @FayeHazel that is even more dangerous than the knife thing. But I can tell you that going slow and following the car in front of you might bad as well. But yes, going fast is as bad.

Hello @dragon68 That would have been terrible for me, I will be more careful from now on.
