In this video, Chef Eric Crowley, owner of the Culinary Classroom in Los Angeles, ‪teaches us all about knife safety.
Knife Safety Tips
- Keep your knives sharp. The main reason people wind up cutting themselves, either at home or professionally, is because of a dull knife.
- Carry your knife at your side. As long as you carry your knife at your side, your arm will act as a buffer in case you bump into anything.
- Do NOT attempt to catch a falling knife. If your knife gets knocked over the edge of a counter or table, just let it fall on the floor. If you attempt to catch it, you're just increasing your chances of getting seriously injured.
