You could just about do that with a Stanley Knife. A friend of mine (a professional builder) screwed a screw into his hand when putting up a garden fence. He tried pulling his hand away, but it wouldn't come. He had to unscrew the screw. That was a puncture wound, so it didn't look like much from the outside. |
