Only then did I find that the small round hole on the kitchen knife at home has a hidden function, which is really practical. After reading it, try it quickly.
The kitchen knife, as a necessary tool for every small family, plays an indispensable role in our daily life. Whether it's cutting vegetables, cutting meat, or dealing with various ingredients, it is our right hand. Now, with the improvement of people's living standards, supermarkets display a variety of kitchen knives, such as bone cutters, kitchen knives, etc., each with its own characteristics, dazzling people. Careful people will find that almost every kitchen knife has a small round hole on it. At first glance, this hole seems to be just for decoration, but in fact, its existence has many practical functions.
The first function is that the existence of small round holes can reduce vibration and release pressure. As we all know, when chopping bones or chopping big stick bones, the blade will bear great pressure. At this time, if there is no hole on the kitchen knife, the vibration will be more intense, and even the knife edge may have a notch. The cushioning effect of the small round hole can not only protect the blade from being broken or cracked, but also reduce the vibration of the user's hand and prevent the tiger's mouth from being hurt.
The second function is that the small round hole can also facilitate us to remove the stone of dried red jujube. Dry red dates are often used to cook porridge, but the pulp and date stones are tightly bound, which is very troublesome to handle. When we need to dry the red jujube stone, we can aim the round hole of the kitchen knife at one end of the red jujube, press it gently, the pulp will fall off easily, and the stone removal will become easy. In this way, the date stone will fall off automatically, greatly improving the efficiency and convenience of removing the stone.
The third function of the small round hole is to dry the water. We should thoroughly clean the kitchen knife after each use. If there is no small round hole, just put it on the cutting board to dry, it is easy to rust. With the small round hole, we can hang it up. Whether it is hung on the hook or the knife rest, it can effectively dry the water and make the water dry naturally. This can not only avoid rusting of kitchen knives and facilitate access, but also save storage space in the kitchen, which is clean and sanitary.
The design of the small round hole also takes into account the safety of the kitchen. We can often see that the kitchen knife is vertically inserted on the knife rest or magnetic strip, and the small round hole plays the role of fixing the knife. With this small hole, the kitchen knife can be stably suspended, which is more convenient for both access and storage. This design not only avoids the contact between the blade and other kitchen utensils, reduces the possibility of wear, but also reduces the risk of being scratched by the blade.
Fourth, the small round hole can also help us quickly remove the tail of the screw. When cooking, we need to remove the tail of the screw for thorough cleaning and cooking. At this time, we can insert the tail of the screw into the round hole of the kitchen knife, hold the knife with one hand, and then use the other knife to quickly remove the tail, so that we can quickly complete the cleaning work, which is time-saving and convenient, and the cooking screw is also more delicious.
Fifth, the small round hole can also help us reduce hand fatigue when chopping meat. Find a chopstick, go through the round hole of the kitchen knife, and cut the meat with both hands becomes easier. Whether you are chopping meat, garlic or vegetables, this small skill can make the kitchen work more relaxed and happy.
Although the small round hole on the kitchen knife seems insignificant, it contains many practical functions. All the above aspects reflect the ingenuity and humanity of the designer. This small round hole shows its indispensable importance. Therefore, the next time you use a kitchen knife, you might as well pay more attention to this small round hole, perhaps you will find more unexpected magic.
