I jabbed my finger a couple years ago with a havalon while boning an elk, thus the Kevlar glove for the non-knife hand. An LEM meathook would work as well.
The easy fix though is to replace the havalon. I quartered a deer last week with an outdoor edge Razor Blaze and found it superior to the havalon in so many ways. Weighs about 2 oz more, but is stronger and much easier to grip and maneuver.
