MastiffMomQlt Posted October 5, 2011 Report Share Posted October 5, 2011 One of my favorite tools to frog is a #10 blade scalpel. I buy them from Tractor Supply. They are inexpensive & VERY sharp. I'm always really careful while I'm using them. Then yesterday while a friend was over I used it & w/o thinking, pushed the cap on too hard & the blade went right through that plastic cover & cut me! BUGGER! Funny thing was, my friend who was over is a nurse & took a quick look & said, nope, no stitches...maybe a tetanus shot though. So, the moral of the story is, always pay attention to those sharp little buggers or they'll come out to bite you OK, so it's NOT a great story, but it sure was long....
