Thread Starter 

So I'm going to get a good foundation for cooking, so I'm reading alot.  Someone here mentioned egullet forums.  Good stuff.  Just finished reading part of a training about knives - "...don't try to catch a falling knife,"  she wrote.

So what do I do when I dropped a knife an hour later- i stick my foot out to break its fall.

oh boy

 "...don't try to catch a falling knife."

Applies to the stock market, too.

Yeah, you probably shouldn't try to hacky the knife back into your hand.

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.

It really hurts when a knife lands point first on your foot

 I've felt the fear... when you're afraid to look at the damage...
