RPTR WAS TRYING TO SECURE THE BUTTON INTO THE SPECIMEN HOLDER, WHICH REQUIRED SOME FORCE TO SNAP-IN TO THE SLOT. DURING THIS MANEUVER, THEIR FINGERS SLIPPED FROM THE BUTTON AND HIT THE KNIFE BLADE, RESULTING IN A CUT ON RIGHT MIDDLE FINGER. COMPARED TO OTHER CRYOSTATS, THIS PARTICULAR MODEL REQUIRES SNAP-IN HOLDER OF THE BUTTON AND HAS A LARGE PORTION OF THE BLADE BEING EXPOSED TO GIVE A POTENTIAL FOR CUTTING INJURY.
