Just cut my finger accidently on the rotary cutter. Even though the cut was slight, I feel so dumb. Anyone else ever done that??

Did a month ago only it wasn't so slight. Still tender and sore. I got guards for my rulers now.

At a class a woman shared she cut it so bad, she had to have lots and lots of stiches. She uses leather gloves now...

Yes, unfortunately I have to admit that I cut my left index finger pretty bad. A part of it had to be reattached. :O But that was a few years ago. It healed up okay. ;D

Yep! I've cut my fingers a good number of times and once very deep still have the scar! I use a June Taylor shape cutter now . It cuts down on spilled blood.

I've nicked my finger, but more often I've cut part of my nail off. Try explaining "rotary cutter" to a non-english speaking manicurist... lol

Bought this the other day to help hold my ruler steady and hopefully prevent cutting accidents (had one small one). So far I like it but the jury is still out. At least I can use it near my bathtub to help me get in and out after my next knee replacement... Anyone else use these?
