Dude, that blows
I did a thumbtip once. But that's because some dumbass put a bread knife in a sink full of soapy water.
So you can't get like a rubber cap or something to put on there? Wouldn't be up to your normal standards, but I'd think it would keep you gigging.

It was a big piece
I'll be doing well to be back at it by april, I think.
I took off a slice about the diameter of a dime. Managed not to involve the nail or bone, thank ghod, but the bone was a close call... didn't miss it by much. I'm going to have to wiat for it to heal up, then I'm going to have to work up the callous (main bending finger, gonna take a while) as well as have to learn how to play with a differently shaped finger.

Confused now
I'm trying to figure out how you get that injury while julienning. Left hand cupped over the top of the knife and a carrot rolled to the side?

Potatoes
kind of... I was doing the second set of cuts and the potato slid under the knife, and my finger went far enough for the blade to catch the tip.

C'mon man
You need to fashion yourself a Tony Iommi fingertip :-)

Truthfully...sorry to hear about the finger. Hope it heals well and quickly.
I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.

It's the bender... most bends are done with this finger.
