Unfortunately they will all show off. I had a kickback break one of fingers in three places. The impact split my finger from below my fingernail around the tip down to the first joint line on the inside.
It doesn’t take long to be reminded either

I had a good buddies dad cut off three fingers. He’s a master carpenter, and he said I was just tired and a little careless. It literally takes a split second.

Yeah.....tools just ain't got no respect for flesh and bones.
I've been forging blades now for a little over 30 years, and I still pick up a hot one now and then. And we won't even talk about singed facial hair from forge poots.

Just put some saw dust and wood glue on it you’ll be fine. Seriously though, I’ve been bit a time or two, scary how quick it happens.

Looks like you got a painful case of Covid

I actually off today because my wife has CoViD. When I woke up with a productive cough, my employer had me take a CoViD rapid test. I couldn’t work until it resulted. I did this while I was waiting. Does that mean that this is a CoViD induced injury?

Joiners can be rough. I have known two men with only one complete finger on a hand compliments of one of those.

Just don't get in a hurry or forget to use it. Dad had his choice of 3 or 4 push blocks but was in too much of a hurry to take the 5 steps it would have taken to get one.
I was really tired at the time of my incident,,,,didn't listen to my inner sense,,,,I was using a real nice old craftsman push stick,,,,
