Knife safety from Buck Knives

ALWAYS HANDLE YOUR KNIFE WITH CARE

At Buck Knives, we encourage you to use your knife safely.

Cut away from your body, not toward it.
If you drop your knife, let it fall. Don’t attempt to catch it.
Never run with a knife.
Don’t throw a knife to anyone. Hand it to them, handle first.
Never point a knife at anyone.
Do not use a locking blade if the lock will not lock open. Make sure the lock is working before using it.
Keep your knife folded or sheathed when carrying or storing.
Use a sharpening stone, not a power grinder to sharpen your knife. A power grinder can make the edge brittle and will void the warranty.
Use the right tool for the job.
Don’t use a knife for prying. It can cause the tip to break, possibly causing injury.
Use in a well-lit area, so you can see what you’re doing.
Do not use a knife on “live” electrical items like appliances.
Keep your knife clean, particularly the locking mechanism.
Keep your knife oiled and sharp. A sharp knife is safer than a dull one.
Don’t try fixing a Buck knife yourself. It is dangerous and voids the warranty.
If you get cut, seek first-aid immediately.
