Why does Odysseus decide not to stab the cyclops with his sword?

Odysseus refrains from stabbing the cyclops with his sword because he realizes that by blinding the cyclops instead, he ensures his escape since the monster is the only one who can move the boulder blocking the cave's entrance. Blinding the cyclops allows Odysseus and his men to hide under the sheep and trick the cyclops when he checks for intruders.


Why does Odysseus blind instead of kill the cyclops when he has a chance?

Blinding the cyclops instead of killing it allows Odysseus and his men to escape undetected, as they can only be released from the cave by the cyclops. If they had killed the cyclops, they would have been trapped in the cave with no way out. Blinding the cyclops is a strategic move to ensure their own safety and freedom.
