A sharp knife is ____ than a dull knife.
A
more dangerous
B
safer
C
equal
D
harder to cut with
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A dull blade is actually more dangerous to use than one that is sharp. Here’s why: A dull blade requires more pressure to cut, increasing the chance that the knife will slip with great force behind it. A sharp knife “bites” the surface more readily.

Detailed explanation-2: -A dull knife or butter knife is used for cutting soft foods, spreading, and prying.

Detailed explanation-3: -Handling a knife: Keep fingertips curled under the hand that is holding the food. Point the blade away from your body when cutting, washing, or drying a knife. Always use a cutting board. Secure your cutting board with a damp paper towel or non-slip mat.
