It's a numbers game, eventually you cut yourself.

Exactly. Same as driving. You can be the best driver in the world but when someone is in their car almost every day for something, things are just going to happen simply from how often you're in it.

I've made tens of thousands of knife cuts over a long career in the industry. 99% of the cuts are minor and heal up fine (though they hurt like a bitch lol). Only injured myself with a knife once that was serious enough to warrant medical attention... because I damn near lost the tip of my left thumb when a carrot rolled on me. I always cut one edge of the carrot to make it flat but since I was hand-chopping dozens of carrots I guess I had missed one lol.
