Keep all knives away from bottles of wine/champagne.

He didn’t follow his own advice - work the blade along the feel of the bottle for a bit before attempting to saber. Don’t just last against the neck like a drunken......well, a drunken alton brown.

I think many of us, including myself, is consuming the booze pretty hard lately.

And apparently my one tallboy is one too many as I meant “keel” and not “feel” of the bottle lol

It just blew! I’m too fucked up to really care what you’ve been drinking. I’m fucking hammered.

I am a skilled champagne saber-er and have done it with everything from the back of a bread knife to an actual cavalry saber (my great-grandfather’s— my grandfather used it for the same purpose for many years before passing it down to me ), and have never injured myself actually sabering a bottle...but then suffered one of the worst cuts of my life while removing a rubber stopper from a previously sabered bottle and forgetting how sharp the rim would be, because I’d been drinking champagne, of course.

Haha. I also have an ironic cut from sabering a bottle with one of those Chinese meat cleavers. S lashed my thumb on the sharp corner, forgetting the blade was pointed towards me.
