Posted this on GD and thought this might be of use to some here.
Had a minor stabbing accident yesterday, took a Spyderco Native to the chest. Went in about 1/2", would have went in further if it had not hit bone. Oh well, those of you who wish me ill missed a golden opportunity. That will teach you the next time about the timing of your prayers. LOL
Anyway, ended up with a 1/2"+- long wound that was seeping blood, I don't know how deep it ended up being. I called the wife to bring some crazy glue to the gunshop so I could glue myself up. I had heard that this was being used (might even be the reason for the invention I'm told), so I thought I would give it a try. I took some gauze and ensured that the wound was good and dry, I made sure I bled it to flush it out as much as possible. Once everything was dry I squirted a line of glue in the wound and pressed both ends of flesh together. When I pulled my hand off the wound it stayed togther. No more bleeding, no swelling, no stinging, nothing. I only felt the ache of the stabbing. Not bad.
I had heard that this was good stuff and wondered if I needed to carry it in my kit when I'm backpacking. I think I will now. I'm going to watch to make sure it doesn't go septic now. I was pretty impressed.

"A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks." Thomas Jefferson, Encyclopedia of T. Jefferson, 318 (Foley, Ed., reissued 1967). (Letter to Peter Carr, his 15-year-old nephew, August 19, 1785).
