You know the idiom {pel'aQDaj ghorpa'} "before it breaks it shell".
The subject of {ghor} causes the object to become broken.

You used {teb} in two different senses. I think the second one matches
the examples we have (e.g. {tebwI'} "server in a fast-food
restaurant").

{woj} alone means "sterilize". I think you just want {vIwojmeH} "so
that I sterilize it". {vIwojmoHmeH} could work in a convoluted way if
you meant "[I set it on fire] in order to make it [the alcohol/flame]
sterilize (the knife)," but it would probably get strange if you
wanted to mention the knife explicitly.
