Detailed explanation-1: -In order to prevent contamination, it is important to clean your knife as soon as you’re done using it. Leaving your knife on your cutting board or in a sink full of soapy water clutters your kitchen and creates opportunities for contamination and injury.
Detailed explanation-2: -Never leave knives soaked in a sink full of soapy water. You may injure yourself by putting in your hand to take them out. Soaking knives also increases the risk of corrosion. Remember, corrosion resistant doesn’t mean that the knife will never rust regardless of how it is used.
Detailed explanation-3: -Leaving your knives soaking in water is never a good idea. Not only is it dangerous to leave a knife in a sink, but the water also has the potential to damage the blade. Not only is there an increased possibility of the blade rusting, but it will almost always cause the handle to degrade.
