Hi there...if the blade was relatively new and clean, then there's no need for any vaccination. You can just apply topical antibiotic creams like mupirocin or fusidic acid cream, twice daily till the wound heals. If the blade was old and rusted, then it is better to take a tetanus vaccine injection (if you haven't had one in the last two years). Consult a general surgeon for any further queries.
