How do I ensure safety while using a knife for cooking?
user
When using a knife for cooking, always wear protective clothing, such as an apron. Be careful not to scratch or burn yourself while using the knife. Make sure that the blade is clean and free of any food particles before using it on another item. Keep children away from the area where you are preparing food and make sure that any cutting boards or blocks are cleaned regularly to prevent cross-contamination. Never leave your hand in a bag or pocket while holding a knife, and never attempt any knife tricks while handling sharp objects. If possible, use gloves when cooking with sharp knives.

Wear suitable safety gear when using a knife, such as non-flammable clothing, heatproof gloves and a hat. Make sure the knife is clean and sharp, and handle with care. Make sure the surface you are cutting on is safe (e.g. non-flammable) and avoid any distractions while handling the knife. Always keep hands away from the tip of the blade when in use, as it may slip easily out of control while chopping or dicing food items. Cut away from yourself (and your other hand!) at all times too - this simple rule alone can protect against any unintentional injury caused by contact with your own body during use of the knife
