Chopping off your fingers while cutting veggies: Can this really happen?

Aubrey says her biggest fear is accidentally chopping her finger off with a knife while cooking in the kitchen. Unlike some other fears we’ve covered, hers is statistically possible - and common. But how do we prevent knife-related accidents from happening when knives are the most essential tool in our lives? 

On this episode of Your Weirdest Fears, host Larry Mullins sits down with knife expert Jay Fisher to find out. With over two decades of experience as a cutler, he’s as sharp as a knife himself, and shares an abundance of information and anecdotes about how to use knives properly and how dangerous they actually are in the kitchen.
