One moment you're fine, the next it's AAAARGH!!

This afternoon I was chatting and fiddling with a pocketknife. The knife fell into my lap and instinctively I slammed my legs together.
This drove the knife 1 full inch into my leg.
I got a roll of TP and iodine and after a few OMGs I was holding it open and dripping it full of iodine, closing it, wiping, opening, iodine etc. It bled quite so but fortunately the huge artery that runs through the inner thigh wasn't hit. If that had happened I would have had to stuff a pen in there and call 911 dammit  I could stuff one in by the size of the cut (1.2" wide and 1" deep) tho.
I read stuff how people got stabbed with a knife and then proceeded to beat up the stabber. I can believe that. The pain in the first half minute or so of my being pricked was a merely a nuisance and the iodine didnt cause drama too. I did retch a couple of times but that was by the stress of the moment.
But one moment you're fine, the next it's AAAARGH!! If it doesnt infect and heals properly it all in all was an interesting experience. I expected it to hurt way more than it did and it was great to once more totally keep my cool in dire circumstances, a pocket knife sticking out of my leg this time.
Lucky it wasn't a survival knife LOL

i think you should probably leave the knife in.
but i suppose instinct is to want to pull it out.

For the macabre among us: it made as soft wet "ssp" when I took it out. I don't think its too big a deal but if I had hit that artery it would've gotten ugly

Damn you should be lucky man! I don't know how big your survival knife is but I got a hunting/fishing knife and I DON'T want that to get into my leg... It'll probably go further then 1" that's for sure hehe

You called 911, did they send an ambulence or anything? Or did they just tell you how to take care of it yourself?

I believe you! You had to deal with something way worse but it hurts far less initially than you'd think. I heard that before actually. A cop said that a knife x knife fight usually means two people stabbing eachother full of holes until one drops. The bill comes later.
a philips screwdriver.. did that close up properly? That would be a hard cut to heal I figure.
I've had an IV drip some years ago and getting one plugged in by an inept nurse hurts way more than that jab. In fact, it hurt as much as the heart attack, only briefly. Huge bruises..

It all heald up fine, it sucks though one of the stabs was in my forehead so theres a huge ball of scar tissue the size of a half ping pong ball.
I knocked that guy to the ground and slammed down onto him with my elbow and broke his collar bone, there was this huge cracking sound and his girlfriend started throwing up everywhere. That was the most hardcore fight i had ever been in.
