Just before Christmas last year, I did the same thing with a #6 Mustad 3665A. It had gone in my big toe and stuck IN THE BONE! There was no way I could pull it put, despite many painful attempts. I swallowed my pride (my wife woke up and freaked!) and I let the Mrs. take me to the Emergency Room (unnecesary, but it kept her happy). The attending physician attempted to cut the hook, but was unable to. He had to physically cut the entire hook free from the tissue and remove the point manually from my toe bone. I still get ribbed when see any of my friends on staff there. The whole county heard about it!

Not only are Mustads tough, they are super SHARP!!!!!

Semper Fi!
