RE: [nafex] Is grafting a blood sport?



Joe
I can beat your clumsiness I think.  Being to lazy to sharpen my grafting
knife, and employing to technique of pulling the knife towards one's self
when making the cut on the branch, I proceeded to stab myself in the chest
through a jacket and a T-shirt and a few layers of skin.  Unfortunately no
stitches so I imagine someone else out there can top me...
