    I think that the title of this thread is misleading. A Chefs knife is obviously a good tool with which to cut through one's finger.

    Agreed, when I saw the thread title I was assuming the thread would contain information about why a chef's knife in particular was a poor selection for cutting ones finger.

    Do you cut meat or just your thumb and fingers? I cut meat, and the injuries from meat cutting are terrible, band saws and steak knives are the worst I have seen. Now I wear a stainless glove whenever I cut boneless meat, the band saw is another thing....I just respect it a bit more than I did in the past.

    damn, that sucks! I had the same passing out feeling when I cut the shit out of my finger with a screw. OT, but at least it wasn't a chainsaw...my friend almost lost his thumb when a guy we worked with came down on his hand with with one, luckily he was wearing gloves which bound up the saw. It cut through a tendon and hit the bone.

    I have some pictures....
