Hi people.
Here's one all of you should know.
There is a hemostat that works great and won't cost you $$$.
And best of all it can be found in every grocerystore in the western world. I've I read this years ago, here :

It is safe. I've used this to halt major bleeding from a severed vein in someones leg, as wel as on minor cuts like the one described by Martin.
It is nothing other than plain old "Instant mashed potatoes" powder.
Pour it on and into the wound, cover with gauze and apply pressure........
Try this, you will be surprised ! <img src="/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
