Narrative

Employee was cutting a piece of corrugated plastic hose, holding it horizontal with his body and one hand. The other hand was making a cut around the plastic hose and when he came around to the other side it cut quicker than he anticipated. The knife cut through his leather glove and gave him approx. a half inch cut between his thumb and index finger.
