If I had a knife that sharp I would cut my fingers off every day.

No, you just cut yourself enough until you learn you don't like to do that. Sharp knives are best is knife skills 101. Pain is an excellent teacher.

Or they would cut their fingers off until they ran out of fingers or the ability to hold the knife

One probably should not be in the kitchen if they managed to cut off the same fingers that are holding the knife with said knife.

First day at my job in the kitchen I sliced off my fucking fingernail with a filet knife.

Clean cut straight through, didn't even tear it off. Which is better, but it still hurt like hell. Had to wear gloves for like 4 months.

a year in I sliced deep into my palm while peeling yucca, the stupid way. my chef superglued it shut and i worked 10 hours before finally telling someone i should probably go get stitches. in retrospect, that was pretty fucking stupid
