Samesame. I can cut them all day without any effect to my hands, but all
you have to do is forget what you're doing for a few seconds, or just
dry your hands on paper towel/cloth, and go to scratch yourself
inadvertantly (as guys do!!) and then you suddenly remember what it was
you were cutting up :-)

Soldati, io esco da Roma. Chi vuole continuare la guerra contro lo
straniero venga con me. Non posso offrigli ne¤ onori ne¤ stipendi; gli
offro fame, sete, marce forzate, battaglie e morte. Chi ama la Patria mi
segua.
