Employee 1 was sitting on the back of a field truck using a knife to cut twine that ties bundles of crates together. Employee 2 came to grab two bundles. Employee 1 still had the knife in their hand when employee 2 grabbed the bundles, causing employee 1's hand to jerk; the knife cut employee 1's left eye.
