easy wood projects - Home Made Thumb Guard

Knife guards can be quite useful in the prevention of knife nicks to the thumb, when making paring cuts.  I usually make sure that my thumb is placed over the edge of the wood so that it will not serve as a stop cut.  However, the thumb guard will offer some protection should the knife blade move past the edge of the wood.

After seeing several examples of this thumb guard posted, I decided to simplify the making of one.  The examples of this thumb guard that I have seen all have stitching in the leather, to hold it together.  I used "Super Glue".

Cutout folded and Supper Glued, held together with paper clips.  This seems to hold up very well.
