SAFETY KNIFE SET HOLDER FOR HOMES

-------

Safety knives are an essential part of occupational health and safety, helping to prevent injuries in the workplace, from minor cuts to the more severe. It’s important to ensure that a person is able to carry out their roles with as little risk as possible, making safety cutters a solid investment. 

The design of a safety knife usually consists of a body, a blade, and a button or switch. The blade can come out of the body of the knife by means of an appropriate mechanism or be completely concealed to make cutting injuries as good as impossible.

The first thing that you should know about a safety knife is that it is specifically designed with safety in mind. These knives tend to have a smooth handle that houses the blade that will be used. There is often some sort of cover that can snap in place over an exposed blade to reduce the chance that something will come in contact with it at an unwanted moment. The handle makes it easy to grip, and the blade is usually positioned in such a way that you need to be safe when there are children around the vicinity of knives.

Home safety refers to the awareness and education of risks and potential danger in and around a home which may cause bodily harm, injury or even death.

Cuts are all too common but serious in commercial kitchens because knives and other cutting implements are constantly in use. These cuts, and the seriousness of the cuts, however, can be held to a minimum by using ordinary good sense, by paying attention to the proper safety rules, and by practicing proper cutting procedures. Once the skill of using a knife is developed, accidental cuts should not occur very often. However, when and if they do occur, they should be treated properly and without delay. If infection sets in, it can result in more serious consequences and the loss of many working hours.

Did you know that about 4.5 million children are injured at home every year?

The Injury Prevention Program at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles sees many families and patients who have come in for injuries suffered at home and helps to educate them. The parents always mention that they did not expect the injury to ever happen because they have eyes on their children at all times. Unfortunately, even to children of the most watchful parents, injuries sometimes only take seconds to occur. However, it is important to remember that they are preventable, and an easy key step is to childproof your house. These accidents do not only happen to children, it can also happen to adults inside the kitchen. Some people tend to underestimate the dangers of using a kitchen knife because they think that it is too easy to use.

The researchers conducted this during a month of February where this month said that the number of casualties suddenly increased. However, it is unusual that children are most affected on the said incident

To conduct this study, the researchers interviewed some children who got an injury about knives such as cuts, lacerations, abrasions, or stabbings. Moreover, the researchers will analyze the benefits that they can get if you have a safety knife set holder at Filipino homes. The purpose of this study is to keep your home free of dangers and equipped with home safety equipment that can prevent mundane accidents and can protect you from emergencies like abrasion and lacerations.

It can be all too easy to accidentally cut one’s self when dealing with a lot of exposed blades. A safety knife reduces those chances. Safety knives make handling a blade a lot safer while still preserving the functionality to use it for whatever project you need.

Home is supposed to be a place where you go to feel safe and secure. Unfortunately, home is where many accidents occur as well. The main cause of death in children and young adults is injury. Accidental injuries that occur at home account for around 45 percent of these deaths

While the younger population might have no trouble completing kitchen tasks, those who are aging or have other physical disabilities might have problems using certain kitchen tools to prepare the way they want to. (Gustafsson, 2002)

Cooking in the kitchen is a necessity for many people, and making tools and tasks easier or less time consuming can have a significant effect on the person’s ability to complete them (Ritzel& Donelson, 2001 & Bowers, 2000)

Although there are many different variables in the knife market (type of knife, material, and sharpness being the three main ones) there is research done on the consumer level to see if these variables affect the user’s ability. (Stone, 2018)

One study interviewed 48 older people between the ages of 60 and 90 about food preparation of the participants, 19 percent had trouble completing tasks related to food preparation, or had modifications for ways they could accomplish tasks. One of the participants felt pain while peeling and chopping, and another said she didn’t have enough strength in her hands to be able to do certain food preparation tasks. An alternative suggestion was buying prepared meals or pre-sliced vegetables instead of doing the work yourself. (Maguire et al., 2014)

Every day, millions of Americans spend time at home preparing food to eat or to serve their household. In 2014, the US department of labor reported 56.3% of the population engaged in food preparation and cleanup averaging 1.04 hours daily spend on this activity(bureau of labor statistics, 2014)

Consumers will not be using a knife for a long length of time and preparing a meal and are not going to dedicate a period of time to learning .The proper way to cut each type of food with accuracy. (Stone,2014)

According to the theory of L. Brennan et. al (2009) about weapons and violence, weapons are used to protect yourself in incidents or sometimes can be used for violence. Homicides are caused by having a weapon in a household or of an individual in the United States and United Kingdom. On the other hand, this research conducted shows that having a weapon, like a knife, can be used as self defense. Due to high cases of crimes, weapon carrying is implemented for the safety of an individual. Based on L. Brennan et. al using weapons to protect yourself is right

According to US National Library Medicine (2014) 452 sixth-graders students (50% girls; 96.6% African American; mean age 12.0 years) from urban middle schools. A total of 18.4% carried a weapon in the prior 12 months, with boys more likely to carry weapons than girls (22.5% vs. 14.2%, p=0.2) of the youth, 78. 4% reported aggressive behaviors with no significant differences found between girls (81.3%) and boys (75.5%). Carrying weapons can determine the behavior of an individual. Youth are the ones who engage in this situation because of their unsaid thoughts. Bringing weapons at school is one of each institution because of the students behavior.
