Gary’s Safety Tips 
Hey everybody, it’s your friend Gary here, and today I want to talk about something that may seem like common sense, but is actually incredibly important to understand: the dangers of using industrial knives and cutters, and how to stay safe while using them.
First off, let’s talk about why this is even a topic of discussion. Industrial knives and cutters are incredibly useful tools, used in a variety of industries such as construction, manufacturing, and food processing, just to name a few. They allow workers to quickly and efficiently cut through materials that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to work with, which can increase productivity and ultimately save time and money.
However, with this usefulness comes a certain level of danger. Industrial knives and cutters are sharp, often extremely so, and can easily cause serious injury or even death if not used properly. In fact, according to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), lacerations and cuts are some of the most common types of injuries that occur in the workplace, with many of these injuries being caused by knives and cutters.
So, how can you stay safe while using these tools? Here are a few recommendations:
This may seem obvious, but it’s important to make sure that you’re using the right tool for the job. Using a knife or cutter that isn’t designed for the material you’re working with can increase the risk of injury. Make sure you’re using a tool that’s appropriate for the task at hand.
A dull knife or cutter is more dangerous than a sharp one. Dull tools require more force to use, which can cause slips and mistakes that can result in injury. Keep your tools sharp and in good condition to ensure they work as intended.
When using industrial knives and cutters, it’s important to use the appropriate protective equipment. This can include gloves, safety glasses, and even full-body protection, depending on the task at hand. Make sure you’re using the right equipment for the job and that it fits properly.
A cluttered or messy work area can increase the risk of injury. Make sure your work area is clean and organised, with no unnecessary materials or equipment in the way.
When you’re not using your tools, make sure they’re properly stored and handled. Keep them in a safe place, out of reach of children or other unauthorised personnel. When handling your tools, make sure you’re using the appropriate grip and technique to avoid injury.
Working with industrial knives and cutters can be mentally and physically exhausting. Take breaks as needed to rest and recharge, and make sure you’re always alert and focused on the task at hand.
By following these recommendations, you can help minimise the risk of injury when using industrial knives and cutters. But remember, accidents can still happen. If you or someone you know is injured while using these tools, seek medical attention immediately.
In conclusion, industrial knives and cutters are incredibly useful tools, but they can also be dangerous if not used properly. By following these safety recommendations, you can help reduce the risk of injury and stay safe while using these tools. Stay sharp, stay safe, and as always, hustle hard!
