Detailed explanation-1: -To walk across your kitchen with a knife you will want to have the blade tip pointing down towards the floor with the sharp edge of the blade facing behind you.
Detailed explanation-2: -Instead, we recommend the Pinch Grip. First, choke up on the knife, curling your three bottom fingers around the handle and pinch on opposite sides, where the base of the handle meets the blade. Your pointer and thumb should be pinching the blade, not the handle.
Detailed explanation-3: -Keep your knives sharp. When walking, hold the knife close to your side with the tip pointing down and blade exposed behind you, or have the knife wrapped. Bend your elbow slightly, so the knife isn’t so low it could injure your calf as you walk. Say “sharp and behind” when moving past someone.
Detailed explanation-4: -Keep knives sharp. Wear a cutting glove. Always cut away from yourself. Use the right knife for the job. Cut on a stable cutting board. Never grab a falling knife. Keep your eyes on the blade. Carry the knife pointed down, or in a scabbard. More items •29-Sept-2014
