Kind of like pumping a rocket launcher at a wall centimeters in front of you.

As for a wounding effect, that I'm not sure of, as I've not encountered that. But my guess may be along the lines of what MTN came up with. A cannonball (Roundshot, perhaps) you fired may have shattered the hull too close and the Shrapnel skill may have rubbed off on you, as Shrapnel leaves the wounding, I think. Although that's just my guess. Like I said, never ran into anything like that. Don't think the throwing knives would have anything to do with it, but considering the crazy things that happen in this game...
