Arguably a table saw is the most dangerous tool; it will
take your fingers off faster than you can say "ouch" or
fling pieces of wood at you at incredible speed.
But for me, my Ryoba hand saw has drawn the most blood.
Over the last 63 years the common coping saw has removed more skin and
drawn more blood than any other woodworking tool - and most of that
was before I was 14!!.
I was thinking of that one too, same time period too. It's funny how
the blade can find your fingers on the back of the workpiece, isn't
it? ; )
There are still marks on my knuckles form the coping saw - as well as
a pretty good one from a dull jack-knife.
