Cross-Contamination, when you use a knife on one food and use it on another e.g. you use a knife to cut raw meat then fruit. The fruit might make you sick because the meat might have had bacteria from not being cooked.
A dirty knife can harbor harmful bacteria, viruses, or other pathogens from prior use, especially if it has come into contact with raw meat, fish, or unwashed produce. When the knife is used to cut other foods, these contaminants can transfer, leading to cross-contamination. Consuming food contaminated in this way can result in food poisoning, as the pathogens can multiply and cause illness when ingested. Proper cleaning and sanitizing of kitchen utensils are essential to prevent this risk.
unless the knife is really clean i suppose not.
A palette knife is used in cooking for when you take something out the oven. you use a palette knife so it is easier to pick up the food. the metal part of it bends so it can go under the food and lift it up.

Food contamination is usually caused when items laden with harmful bacteria come in contact with the food item. It can be human contact, or contact with the prep table or the surface of utensils used in preparation or cooking.
Contamination of food items by other living organisms is known as "biological contamination." This can occur through the presence of bacteria, viruses, parasites, or fungi, which can lead to foodborne illnesses. Sources of biological contamination often include improper food handling, inadequate cooking, or cross-contamination during food preparation. Ensuring proper hygiene and food safety practices helps minimize the risk of such contamination.
