Arlo and Janis by Jimmy Johnson for May 15, 2014

I know that most everyone already knows this, but a sharp knife cuts cleanly. And a “clean” cut heals faster.

Not only that, but a sharp knife works better, and you are not left pushing harder than you should, and trying to saw through some slab of meat, leaving you wide open for error and accidents.

“Ouch!” isn’t my expletive of choice when I nick myself in the kitchen…just saying.

I got a new butcher knife a month ago and tested it by chopping off a piece of my finger. Yep, it’s sharp. Like the Zman said, a sharp knife lessens the chances of accidents. But common sense and careful work habits help too.

When I visited the ER after slicing my finger to the bone, I expected stitches. I got superglue instead.

If it’s sharp enough to perform surgery; it’s good to go in the kitchen. (However, the wife and kids refuse to wash them; too many “nicks” for them).

What was that he was cutting? Looks like some sort of big bug…..

When I sliced my hand from the middle of the first thumb joint to the ball of my hand, I got 13 stitches. Back surgery was super glue. I think it depends upon how much action the affected part will get.

Finale, Clark Kent….good to know I’m not the only one who refuses to use or wash those big sharp knives, and stores them away from intruders.

Chopping an onion makes you cry before you get hurt.

I guess I ought not have read this comments section while eating my breakfast :-( ;-)

I found Wally World had three ceramic kitchen knives, a paring knife, a 5" utility and 6" chef’s blade. I enjoyed using them so I bought a set for KId Sister. Now we swap jokes about the latest bandaid/Super glue incidents. They are very sharp.

You forgot your </sarc>…you were being sarcastic in that last line, weren’t you?

I just want to know why Arlo’s blood is black.
