@chefbrandonallen: How to cut up a melon with a Japanese Chef’s Knife 🍈 🍉 1) Don’t follow the curve of a melon with a Japanese knife. The rind can grab the edge and tweak it. Keep your blade moving in straight lines 2) Slice off the top and bottom so you have a stable base and you can see the inner fruit 3) using your fine and thin Japanese knife, slice straight lines at a time to remove the rind 4) cut in half 5) remove seeds 6) chop into any sized pieces you’d like 👍
"I missed some, why didn't you guys tell me that?" Believe me, sir, I ABSOLUTELY DID. Unfortunately, due to the nature of this format, you could not hear me.

I don't get the point of the Japanese knives. I get they are sharper but it's food. fruit. veggies. meats. I feel like once you get to a certain sharpness that the less brittle knives can get to. the extra sharpness is useless and you are exchanging capability you don't need for brittleness

You could actually take the melon seeds and wash them so they aren’t as slimy then stick them in the air fryer to get roasted and eat them like sunflower seeds. They are delectable.
