Keeping food out of your folding knives??

[Donna V]

How do you keep food out of your folding knives when you use them?

 

[jackknife]

Very carefully. And if food gets in, just wash it out with soap and water.

The basic way to keep food out is to avoid loaning it to your friend.

Do you get food all over the handle of a fixed knife?

 

[M. Johnwell]

I'm assuming you're talking about getting food in the pivot? I usually try to cut things which are small enough to not hit the pivot of my knife and if it's too big, I take multiple cuts. If you're smearing food all over the handle, there may be no help for you.

Overthinking it IMO. Slipjoints have been used for decades for skinning etc. Warm water and soap does wonders.
