very important topic! barely anyone talks about safe use of knives. everyone can buy a knife but barely anyone can use it safely. can't make enough videos about safety! 👍👍👍

Hi Mr Kirtley. Thanks for another very informative video. <br>With knives being accessible to almost anyone, including young people, it’s great to see someone experienced showing the safe use of them. <br>Im sure it will help to reduce some of the aches and pains too when using a knife all day if people adopt the correct grips and techniques. <br>Many thanks. 👍

The power grip is a game changer, learned this 2-3 years ago. And I think it was from you on the channel TA Outdoors
