Giant Oak Splinter Removed!!! After 2 Weeks In Hand!!

My friend got a giant splinter stuck in his hand while working at the sawmill i work at. After 2 weeks without being able to remove it on his own our only option was for me to remove or to go to the hospital. he didn't have insurance so we decided to remove it ourselves. I sanitized the knife and table we were using. I also scrubbed my hand multiple times with antibacterial soap, After removal his hand was sore. but heal well.
