No, it will just bleed. Veins do not go away like that. If that were the case, every time you had blood drawn, you would be losing veins.
The scalpel handle holds a scalpel blade to facilitate use during Surgery. Some plastic handles with a blade already attached are disposable and intended for single procedure use on just one patient. Metal scalpel handles are sterilized in the autoclave for reuse in multiple Surgical cases. A fresh blade slots onto the scalpel handle and can be replaced as needed during Surgery by the Surgical Technologist or Scrub Nurse. Scalpel blades are intended for limited use to make sure that a sharp blade is always available for precision work. Different types and sizes of blade can be fitted to suite the Surgeons needs.
Don't put yourself, especially your fingers, in the blade's path. If cutting living or sterile tissue, ensure the blade is sterilized first. After cutting, put the scalpel into its place to ensure that you do not get cut later, and so you do not contaminate anything with the dirty blade. If the blade is disposable, dispose of it a sharps container when finished.

excoriophobia
Scalpel biopsy. A scalpel is used to make a standard surgical incision or excision to remove tissue. This technique is most often used for large or deep lesions. The wound is closed with stitches.
Hold the scalpel between your index finger and thumb, with the other three fingers supporting the rest of the scalpel. Holding the scalpel like a pencil may exert too much pressure and lack control over the depth of the incision.
