Knife

A knife is a tool that you can use to help you cut things like food, paper, or even branches. The knife is made up of two parts: the blade and the handle. The blade is the sharp part that actually does the cutting. The handle is what you grab onto to hold the knife. When you cut something with a knife, you move the blade back and forth against the thing you want to cut. It's important to be very careful when using a knife because it is very sharp and can hurt you if you aren't careful. That's why grown-ups usually help children use knives until they are old enough to do it safely by themselves.
