Gripping Your Knife The most common grip: Hold the handle with three fingers while gripping the blade between the thumb and index finger.

Gripping Your Knife A variation on the most common grip: Grip the handle with four fingers and place the thumb on the front of the handle.

Controlling Your Knife (Method A) 1 Keeping your fingertips curled back, grip the item being cut with three fingertips and your thumb. Hold the knife in the other hand. While keeping the knife’s tip on the cutting board, lift the heel of the knife.

Controlling Your Knife (Method B) 1 Grip the item as described above. Using the second joint of your index finger as a guide, lift the knife’s tip and slice by drawing the knife slightly back toward you and down through the item, cutting the item to the desired thickness.

Slicing Peel the item (if desired) and place it on a cutting board. Make even slices perpendicular to the item being cut.
