I wear mine all the time, although I know I shouldn't. I've had it snag on things a few times, but never bad enough to actually hurt me. My BIL nearly lost his finger. He was standing on his front porch holding onto a board overhead. He went to step down and his ring hung on a nail head and nearly degloved his finger. He took it off and has never worn it again. Like I said, i know I shouldn't wear mine while doing manual tasks. But I just never think to take it off.
