Strips or sutures?

[NorthernRaider]

I've scrapped the suturing kit I had for years cos I never had the where with all to use it, so I replaced the suture kit with two other items Medical Super Glue and Steri-Strips, I've used the glue one when I slipped whilst using a craft knife, it worked but the bottle went off after it had only been used to dispense one drop??? dunno if I did not refit the top properly or not. The Steri-Strips work great on incisions and wounds providing the skin is dry in the area around the cut, if its infected or fungussed and the skin is sloughing steri strips wont hold. What I have found useful in holding cuts closed whilst I dress or seal it is a pair of locking fauceps I blagged from a modelling shop.
