I recently had to glue my thumb back on after I lopped it off with a Japanese knife while I was dicing vegetables. At my age, I have probably moved that knife millions of times and only cut myself once. Nobody can have a perfect record.

Had a friend do that recently. Knife freshly sharpened, took a dime sized hunk of his thumb right off. They stitched it back on, mostly to protect what was left underneath while it healed.
