Smh my head she's not even holding it properly.

@bigtiddyoneesan Least they even got to have home ec classes and handle knives. Didn't even have them in school here, and didn't figure it out until I was 21. Good ol' Murrica.

I used to do the second one initially, by the by. The proper form is so much more comfortable.

Every time I walk away from a cutting board with all my fingers intact, I count that as a small victory.

I've always used the 3rd grip since forever.
Didn't even have to be shown how to hold a knife when I worked in a restaurant.

The 3rd grip is generally the correct grip for a chef's knife or santoku (the knife style used in the chapter).
The 1st grip is when you're using a cleaver to hack bones or maybe very rough, fast chopping (like large chunks of vegetables for stock). Then use the 3rd grip with a cleaver for for finer cutting/chopping, though there is a style of Japanese vegetable cutting (using a light, rectangular vegetable chopping knife) where 1st or 3rd grip are acceptable.
The 2nd grip just seems uncomfortable... there's less power behind the knife, index finger takes a lot of shock from all the chopping, palm and hand gets sore from a not very ergonomic grip.

Let's hope she makes a bento for our boy later on.

That skills, she have it. The only way to cut vegetables that can compete with a grinder.
Sadly, I don't have that skill.😞

For once, I feel her

Cutting things with a sharp knife is one of the most satisfying things ever
