i know it,s rare for me to be silent Johny but after reading this thread i,m baffled...the sharper the blade,the safer the blade and used correctly will not cause injury...

I have a nice scar on my left arm from slipping whilst cutting with my silky.its 2+ inches and went deep enough to expose the artery,fortunately I didn't cut through it! Wasn't cool,been extra safe since .

 

I also remember a tree surgeon from Northamptonshire on bizarre e.r no tv ,he cut through tendons and veins in his wrist with a silky ! That was gory!

Why would anyone cut towards flesh with a blade, any blade? Treat it (hopefully) as you would treat a chainsaw, with respect and some sense.

Not dotting myself in the cutting action but in the saw moving 2" or so out of its sheath and making contact with my forarm, i should of made that clear !

i have the saw on my left with the handle forward as i am right handed , dotting the left forarm. i am putting it back correctly .
