Knife Blunt

Why is it dangerous to cut with a blunt knife?

I just got a brand new, very sharp knife and it says to sharpen it and it gave me steel to sharpen it with. So I was just watching a Gordon Ramsy video on how to sharpen my knife, and he said it's dangerous to use a blunt knife, why is that?

A blunt or dull knife requires more pressure to cut. This increased pressure plus the inability of the knife to cut into the object increases the likely hood of the knife slipping and cutting a finger or stabbing a hand.

A good example is cutting tomatoes. If you try to cut a tomato with a butter knife, good chances are you'll end up with a mushy but not cut tomato. The knife will just slide off the tomato's skin since its not sharp enough to 'bite' into the skin for a proper slice.

Oh, and make sure you fully understand how to sharpen you knife before you attempt to do it yourself. Many a good blade was ruined due to improper sharping.
