'Reminds me: Summer of '79, I was building a house near Goldsboro, NC; as I was pulling into driveway at the site one afternoon, a mason was kneeling down in the front yard chipping on a tile flue liner, and as I eased to a stop near him blood suddenly started spurting from an artery in his neck (flying piece of tile had cut him). 'Took 2 or 3 spurts for him to realize it was HIS blood spurting onto his work, and he dropped his tools to grab his neck to plug the "dike." I jumped out of my truck and ran to 'im to try to stop the flow by pressing my hankie to the hole, while yelling very loudly to his sons up on the roof. Two sons rushed to us and hurried him off to emergency room, one driving, other holding my hankie against the wound. Mason survived, and was back on job next day.

Then let me suggest the use of a brass hammer.

My father was cut quite badly many years ago when a bearing he was trying to remove shattered. A piece of it flew accross the top of his hand and cut an artery.
