Requirements:
Knife Skills by Rae’s Creations
Flower & Triangle
Complete all requirements. (Have an adult prep a “knife”. Using a plastic knife, cut the handle at the base of the blade. Place so that the cut ends are both facing the same way. Place a hole through both the handle and the blade near the cut end. Place a brad in the hole and lock it in place, creating a folding knife.) ALWAYS have adult supervision while completing these requirements. Remember:
Knives are tools, NOT toys.
- Learn about the history of 2 different knives including the Swiss Army Knife. When was the knife invented? Who invented it? What was its purpose? What is its purpose now? How has it changed? For the Swiss Army Knife, explain the use of 3 attachments?
- What can you use a pocket knife for? When is it appropriate to have a pocket knife? What are the rules for carrying a pocket knife? What are the consequences of using a pocket knife incorrectly? Make a poster with pictures showing what you have learned and include the rules for carrying a pocket knife on the poster. Share it with your group.
- Learn about your safety circle or “blood circle”. This is your circle of safety when using a knife. What is the appropriate area of your safety circle? Who should be in your safety circle when you are using a knife? Should you check your safety circle with your knife opened or closed? Practice making your safety circle.
- Learn about safely passing a pocket knife and the “thank you” rule. When passing a pocket knife to someone else, make sure that the pocket knife is closed. Place the pocket knife in the person’s hand but do not let go until the person says, “Thank you.” This ensures that the person is aware that they have the pocket knife in their hand and are now responsible for the pocket knife. Practice performing the “thank you” rule.
- Learn about proper use of a pocket knife. When using a pocket knife, always cut away from yourself, never toward yourself. When possible, place the object that you are cutting on a flat surface. Practice this using a hotdog and paper plate. Place the hotdog on the paper plate. Cut the hot dog in half. Slice half of the hot dog into pieces, making sure to keep your other hand out of the way while still holding the hot dog. Ask your adult about ways to hold the hot dog while keeping your fingers safe. For the other half of the hot dog, make strips of hot dog. Start at one end, cutting away from yourself, to the other end. Ask your adult about how to hold the hot dog safely.
- Learn about proper care and storage of your knife. Though you won’t be able to do it with your plastic knife, learn about sharpening your pocket knife with a sharpening stone. Watch a demonstration, either in person or a video. Why is it important to keep your pocket knife sharp? How should you store your pocket knife when it is not in use?
- Learn first aid for a cut. If an accident should happen, what do you do for a small cut? What do you do for a large cut?
