Blade Down

Detailed explanation-1: -It’s simple: while holding the handle with your fingers, cradle the spine of the blade in the web of your hand between the thumb and index finger. This allows the recipient to safely grasp the handle. If the blade slides across the giver’s hand, the skin will come in contact with the spine, not the edge.
Detailed explanation-2: -Putting Your Index Finger on Top of the Blade’s Spine It feels natural to put your forefinger on top of the blade of the knife, but in reality, it’s not a safe way to hold a knife.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ever since the 16th century there has been a taboo against pointing a knife at our faces. It is rude, of course, to point at anybody with a knife or a fork, or even a spoon; it is also very bad form to hold knife and fork in the fists so that they stand upright.
