I think you leave it in unless you are not getting help soon

Leave it in, stops the wound from bleeding as much and taking it out could further damage your body if it's not done professionally.

Web says.
If you pull the knife out, you will be removing that barrier and allowing blood to flow out of the cut. NEVER, EVER REMOVE A KNIFE OR OTHER IMPALED OBJECT FROM A STABBING VICTIM! Pulling the knife out could be what kills them.

Shit, what if you accidentally pull it out, should you put it back in?

No that is called stabbing yourself

Depending on who you are, I recommend pulling it out, and stabbing yourself again, over and over.

I never understood that because how does pulling a knife cause further damage

Also is it a common thing for stabbers to leave their stabbing implements in the stabbee?

Yes, I also think you are supposed to leave it in, unless some very specific details arise.

The knife can sometimes cause a seal which stops as much blood escaping
