After about 18 grafts pulling the knife towards me my thumb was looking like meat loaf and switched to pushing. After 96 straight the thumb from the first 18 hurts the most. If I'm suppose to be drawing to myself how am I to avoid my thumb?

Rondi <-first timer too.

Lisa,

Though it may go against all the knife safety you were ever taught as a
child, you pull the knife toward you when you (whip and tongue) graft. It's
not particularly dangerous, but the movement is much easier to perform after
you've watched someone graft in person.
