Started Cutting

I do agree that a Bread knife is a good choice. But the serrations on that one look to be too far apart. The closer serrations result in a much sharper implement. Mine is like this and it will cut through pretty much anything.

Oh, I just pulled a pic to show what a serrated knife is—didn't really look that closely at this one, tbh. Your pic won't open for some reason.

sorry bout that. Should be noted that a serrated blade makes it harder for a wound to heal well

Oooh, that's nice. Yeah, my cuts used to take awhile to stop bleeding. It's all scarred now.

Following careful practice to reduce any risks,but still getting a good amount of blood(which was always important to me),I have razor blades,scalpels,a full set of chefs knives but the handiest tool I found was a pencil sharpener blade.Thick metal,a clean cut and easy to suture.
For ctb,the finest tool would be a stanley blade. However, cutting the aorta would probably mean cutting the oesophagus and thus drowning in ones own blood.

Fuck. For as much as I loved cutting, everything past "razor blades" in your post was like, aaaaand, I'm going to faint. Ha. You are much tougher than I am.

I did smile at your reply.
But the truth is,it isn't tough at all. "Tough" is getting through life without having to slash your skin to bits and become obsessed with your own blood.

Damn. That is an excellent point. I wonder why some people are more resilient than others.
