Just keep yer knuckle's tucked and put a flat edge to that tuber before you begin the slicing.<BR/><BR/>Oddly enough, there are some pretty nice, inexpensive rigs out there that allow you to achieve a profesional edge on your own. It's really not that tough.<BR/><BR/>Plus, Eric Weiss (I post about his workshops on MH) can show you exactly how it's to be done.<BR/><BR/>Of course, having several different steels at your ready really help to maintain a nice edge as well. I sharpen my rigs about every 3 months (heavy use).<BR/><BR/>xo, Bigglesmeathengehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18103655191726899093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5732224038883472327.post-79142203502897099752007-11-11T19:35:00.000-08:002007-11-11T19:35:00.000-08:00KatieZ, what a charming mental picture I have of y...KatieZ, what a charming mental picture I have of your mobile knife sharpener! When I lived in France, the greengrocer came around with a little truck and filled the orders on the spot.<BR/><BR/>Dagny, ouch! A paper cut is no fun, but on one's tongue - eek!<BR/><BR/>Kelly, welcome. I think you're right, plus it's just so nice not to struggle when working in the kitchen.

It's usually dull knives that create more injuries because you're struggling with the cutting implement and using far too much force (so I've been told).;KellytheCulinarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17157742508302761756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5732224038883472327.post-45549215255295131082007-11-11T11:19:00.000-08:002007-11-11T11:19:00.000-08:00I will need the bandaids because I cut myself with...I will need the bandaids because I cut myself with everything.
