So if there were a bunch of zombies coming to get you and you were handcuffed down you would choose the longer option and potentially get eaten by zombies?

Also, if you cut your hand off, you can use it as bait to lure away zombies.

And you can also get a bad ass hook

Probably, the chances of dying from cutting off you're hand seem pretty high as well. At the very least you would be weak from blood loss and be more likely to get caught and eaten in the end anyway. Not to mention you'd probably get halfway through and pass out from pain/blood loss, then get eaten.

I'd take my chances with the chain.

Keep in mind the fact that he was delirious, dehydrated and starving by that time. That can cause some poor decisions. I'm ok with the plot so far.
