I nearly cut the corner off my left thumb once....wrapped it in a paper towel then duct tape to keep the blood in. It was fine in a few days.....
Now I mostly use the rotary cutter with the pressure-sensitive blade guard. (If you don't know what that is, it's similar to the blade guard on a circular saw.)
