That depends on the circumstances. He might die having lost too much blood unless the wound had some kind of compression bandage put on it. Shock/pain from the trauma of the injury coupled with blood loss might be fatal. Infection after the fact can easily be fatal if no medical intervention is made. With some good basic first aid right after the injury and professional care in 24 to 48 hours, the victim should not have to die. Certainly their life will change for the loss of a hand, however.
