    @Dosicmyth It's not advanced. It's amateur and encourages bad cutting habits. This guy can cut well and is clearly practiced, but he's nurtured a bad habit. I've seen it happen in my 10+ years in kitchen work. Both to myself and others who were learning. When I first started out I held their knife like he does. I was told time and time again by the chef's around me and unfortunately started learning the hard way. I don't know about tendinitis, but that's just further reasoning as to why it's bad practice to hold a knife that way.

There are vids of Gordon Ramsay not pinch gripping and even a legend like Jacques Pepin have videos of him not pinch gripping his knife, also, let's add another legend to that.....Julia Child also does not pinch grip, shocker right? Ya'll gonna sit there and say that's an improper grip? Grip the knife how it feel comfortable and stable to you. The rule of thumb has always been to get a good firm grip on the knife and let it do that work for you.

    Having declared my dissatisfaction with this sharpener last night kzread.infoUgkxDcr-y2Pf6xdnrFHrSP7dl9kpKaCozcSQ I thought about the problem some more. It occurred to me that I might be undoing each attempt at achieving a sharp edge by the repeated attempts. So, I tried to clean up the unsatisfactory result by honing with only positions 3 and 4.Miracle!! A really nicely sharpened chef's knife, more than enough to handle my needs. Admittedly, it did not reach professionally sharpened razor-fineness, but it is now significantly sharper than it was. A bout of breaking down carrots convinced me. So, major apologies to the manufacturer, Amazon, and all happy and potential owners! Follow the directions: don't buy it if you have ceramic blades; and don't overwork your knife blade.

    Funny thing is the 3rd one is actually least dangerous as the first 2 are both chopping motions the 3rd is a cutting one and I'm more scared to chop at a finger ( lose the finger ) father then slice the finger ( horrible cut, but still have a finger tip lol ) overall it's more likely to foul up but the damage isn't going to be threw the bone just maybe to the bone which chopping I'd easily go into my bone if I fouled up.

    Tip: Use your finger's knuckle that's just behind the nail. This will help you make precise cuts, and since all your fingers are behind the knife, the risk of any injuries has lowered. The sharper the knife, the smoother and easier it will be. Fun fact: When cutting food or ingredients, a dull knife is more dangerous than a sharp knife. This is because dull knives can slide and skid on what you're cutting causing it to cut you, but a sharp knife can easily slice through what you're trying to cut, only if you know how to handle it. Life Hack: Dull knives and no knife sharpener? Grab a mug or bowl that's made from clay. Use the bottom of it to sharpen the edge of your blade. Behold, you can no longer squish tomatoes

    This is the kind of dude that wants knife sharp enough to slice through fridge like butter

    For whatever reason, I've been using the third method as I find it easiest, not realising it's supposed to be the hardest

    I love this. The better you can use your knife the more you can do. Please keep posting technique videos as well as your recipes. Btw...I hope you have a good warranty for that fridge!

    I've really only gotten good at the "rock n' chop", but it does make me feel like a pro chef.

    I’ve always used the 3rd method. I find anything else too complex. I just grew up around cooks and was always taught the quickest but best methods and I never had chance to try any others
