Exact same scenario with miter saw and a tiny piece of zebra wood I was trying to cut into knife handle blanks. Only difference is, I did it not once but, twice. How I have fingers on my left hand, I will never know. It crushed the aluminum fence beyond repair. I had to get a new saw as well. Not even a newb either.

You apparently don't have one, or access to a band saw since that would be my preferred method of cutting blanks for knife handles. Besides, you'd not have as much waste going to saw blade thickness with those thin bandsaw blades.

BANG, POW, KABOOM blood every where. Thought I had cut the end my thumb off. Turns out the wood flew into the fence it shattered and a razor sharp piece went about 1/2 inch into my thumb.
