Just in case you wanted to know...

A brand new Pampered Chef 8 inch Chef's knife is EXTREMELY sharp and WILL cut through a finger nail!!!

I was so excited to use my brand new "Mother of all Knives". I was using to cut carrots Sunday morning before Church. My carrot rolled just has I was taking a hack at it. I completely cut through my finger nail about half way down. There is only a tiny area of flesh holding it on. As my finger was pouring blood into the sink all I could think about was the fact that Brian had to leave in 5 minutes for Church, what was I going to do!!! I calmly went to the bathroom to analyze the finger and try to figure out if I should just just rip the finger nail off or go to the ER. At that time the boys saw all the blood and screamed for dad. My Knight in Shining Armour came to my rescue! He cleaned me all up and then steri-stripped my nail back down and then taped me all up!!

Praise God that I didn't cut my finger tip off, as this knife could have easily done that!

AUGH! If I only read your blog I would seriously be worried about you. No, wait, I DO only read your blog. Glad you are ok. Sorry about your finger.
