Wrong very painful.  You have to cut deep to get a good vein.

It depends on how much pain in cutting your self you can put up with and
how much blood you have to loose. If you do a resemble job at both wrists
figure about 60 minutes for every 50 pounds of weight.  (a very good job
on wrists and ankles (ie. almost hacking them off) < 15 minutes.)
