I ruined my wrists.
So I'm really careful with my hands. i won't be using hammers and chisels and anything on any butternuts.

A deadblow hammer is nothing like a regular hammer. It is encased in rubber. There is no vibration at all. That's why it's called a deadblow. I wouldn't be using a regular hammer either. I haven't for years now. My wrists, hands, etc. would never take it anymore. It's only a few whacks (not hard either) on the butcher knife and you have cut the squash in half.
Check out your hardware store and you will see what I mean. I wouldn't be without it.
I also type fast and always have. No problems with that now or years back when it was the old manual typewriter. Computers are a whiz to use nowadays. Not at all like even the old electric typewriters. At least for me
