I seem to always have cuts on my hands and they always feel more tender when they happen while skinning coyotes or cleaning fish. I’ve cut myself a bunch of times skinning. Get in a hurry and lose focus for a second and bam, there goes the tip of my finger. Usually just wrap a paper towel around it so I don’t bleed all over the furs and finish up the job, then clean it with some peroxide when I get to the house. I’ve been lucky, no weird diseases or blood poisoning yet.

Thanks guys for the replies.

I have demolished myself in other ways before, I mean, I have had injuries, but you never know when a stupid little thing screws you up.

The cut is totally healed over. Healed really fast, like, in four days.

Just odd that it still hurts a bit inside, and that it swelled up and developed fluid a week later. You hear of these stupid bone infections and stuff. After all the stuff I did it would suck to go down from a poke in the finger.

I was skinning a beaver.

I literally have not cut myself before while skinning. Got all that out of the way running around in the bush with a knife as a kid. lol
