A man stabbed his friend with a knife following an argument at a hostel which the saw blade scratch the victim's bone in a deep injury.
John Layton, 49, wounded Philip Christie at a Barry hostel on May 28 last year as a result of a disagreement between them which left Mr Christie with a serious injury to his arm and a significant loss of blood.
The incident was said to have been out of character for Layton who had no previous convictions and he claimed to have been acting in self-defence. But this defence was rejected by a jury who found him guilty of wounding with intent following a trial at Cardiff Crown Court.
