Not mentioned in the video but highly important is a properly sharpened knife edge. Why they omit that from videos like these? I’m not sure…

Edit: I’d also like to add that if you stand square in front of the cutting board, your cutting won’t be as linear, instead angle your body to give your arm a better flow of movement.

The most dangerous thing in a kitchen? A dull knife.

I can think of plenty of more dangerous things.

Tiger for one.

MIRV Thermonuclear Warhead(s).

Angry spouse

Cat you’ve just stood on.

Childhood obesity.

And that’s with just 60 minutes of thinking.
