1. When using a knife, be sure to keep the tip of the knife facing down and not pointing at people to prevent accidents.
2. Do not put the knife in a hidden place, such as covering it under a rag, sinking it in a pool, etc., so as not to accidentally injure it without knowing it.
3. The knives should be placed at a height and place where children cannot easily reach them, so as not to treat them as toys and cause injuries.
4. When using a knife and chopping board, it must be placed stably, or a rag can be placed underneath to prevent accidental injury caused by slipping during use.
