## Narrative

Employee was stripping a large cable with a razor blade. While stripping the cable, the razor slipped and struck EE's left hand resulting in a minor injury requiring two sutures. A commercial stripper was onsite but was missing a blade so the employee decided to use the razor blade instead and didn't exercise EE's stop work authority.
