You have a point there but I think if you just cut the thumb you could probably construct some kind of hook and place it where the thumb uesd to be and you can grip just fine. And to all of you that says that you can't pull out the hand after a neat thumb-cut, have you seen the X-files episode with the cancer-eating man? Ok, I'm not saying that X-files is realistic but there he get caught and they set cuffs on him. Then he tored of his thumb (ouch!) and escaped easy as pie. Of course then FBI don't have any nasty spells on their cuffs, but what ever. And by the way you got about 0.5 cm soft stuff on each side of the hand before you hit the bone. Ok, I admit it'll hurt a bit to tear it of out of a cuff, but he can keep his hand and probably heal just fine.
