Basic Knife Safety

Knife safety is of paramount importance in both bar and kitchen settings, as sharp blades are essential tools for preparing drinks, slicing fruits, and garnishing cocktails. Whether you’re a bartender crafting signature cocktails or a member of the bar staff helping with preparation, understanding and adhering to knife safety guidelines is crucial. Even if you’re not directly stationed in the kitchen, awareness of knife safety ensures a safe and efficient environment, reducing the risk of accidents and promoting a culture of responsible handling and usage of knives.
