loudest intro followed by the most quiet man

[@ideasonek3374]

Reminds me of Windows XP

[@aldondsouza7874]

Lmaooo

[@robertclarke7820]

Lolol 🍅

[@gaea2580]

LMAO

[@lelachilds4306]

Yo i needed the circley slices like in the thumbnail. Ripoff. Want that minute and a half of my life back.

[@rosieposie0426]

Same!!!!

[@MaxwellNewton]

BONUS STEP - Sharpen the blade over the tomatoes to create a lovely steely garnish. This helps to give that 'blood iron' flavour whilst adding a tasty risk of intestinal hemorrhage.

[@dannywolf2959]

You do realize that a steel does not actually sharpen the blade, so it does not remove any metal. It is actually a tool used for straightening out a blade that may still be sharp but has just curved to one side or the other.

[@MaxwellNewton]

I didnt know that!

[@dannywolf2959]

Maxwell Newton Learn something new every day. :D

[@MaxwellNewton]

Well I did today, thanks Danny

[@Daralantan]

Aren't you're supposed to hone the steel AFTER every use so that it keeps it's edge? I mean I guess you can hone it before you use it since that still makes it "after" your last use... but I don't really see why you wouldn't just do it later. Also yes, it isn't really sharpening the blade, but if you always do it you won't need to sharpen the blade as soon.

[@extrememonaXXX]

My god, that blade is sharp. Smooth slices

[@dance2die]

Great lesson for someone like me who's never cooked before. Thumbs up!

[@TheAmatyarakshasa]

I can't even slice butter like that!!

[@howdini]

That is awesome! So glad that we could help out! ;)

[@TheAtl0001]

Thumbnail shows something completely different.

[@howdini]

Yes it is! Sometime it just takes us visual learners seeing someone in action to see just how easy it is to do something. :)

[@daryllocklear8448]

Thank you for the demonstration.

[@howdini]

GREAT! Thanks for watching! ;)

[@wendywong4248]

Vielen Dank!!!! Das ist bei mir sehr hilfreich!!

[@MufcATW]

i have nothing to do with foods but its just makes me feel good to watch it

[@StefanyCabrera]

Sooo amazing, Im gonna start using my kitchen more often. Lol

[@nandotime3000]

That is it... I am Subbing! These vids are so simple, but damn! Does this guy impress me!!

[@howdini]

We are so sorry that this was not what you were looking for. However, it is more difficult to cut a whole tomato. The challenge is trying to make all the slices straight and even. Cutting it in half 1st really makes it more manageable. We really do hope you can give it a try and see what you think. Thanks for watching and for taking the time to comment. We appreciate hearing from our viewers!  ;)

[@aerialkate]

@real4real1960 - Enjoy feeling superior. I knew how to slice a tomato - but I'd never seen that particular method for taking out the core. So I learned something useful. So thank you to the chef.

[@ForTheLoveOfHomes]

Very helpful!

[@TheBellastella]

very useful.. thank you.

[@howdini]

Glad to help out! ;)

[@louisperez79]

Thanks for the video!

[@muncher541]

Holy shit that's a sharp knife.

[@howdini]

Thanks! :)

[@plano130]

Wow that blade is SHARP

[@Powerofthepickle]

[@brownlace]

Easy peezy. Thank you.

[@howdini]

That is great! ;)

[@Kekeboy100]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW thats so simple!

[@stefanlind79]

[@pepe6162]

That's one really sharp knife.

[@HIDDDify]

[@zcharged8294]

Excellent

[@Earjobes]

[@ShakedXsin]

AMAZING

[@breizhdassault88]

Parfait !!!

[@usntexas1984]

good stuff

[@shaylahealinglight]

Thank you

[@Shavy-fp4wq]

i literally just watched this before my manager came

[@lumberjackfromastoria]

holy moly this makes sense

[@RagingRapids311]

My name is mothball??

[@vleesevlons]

LOL It's Marc Bauer

[@johnnyhohenzollern165]

I was expecting you slice the whole tomato as shown in the thumbnail.

[@TG47GRG]

Johnny Hohenzollern yep misleading in that way

[@howdini]

Thanks for watching and taking the tine to comment! :)

[@TheSupersiddh]

thumbusup!!! if u have revisited this video like me 5th time to see the tomatoes being cut so epicly !!!

[@vi-ho1kw]

im a 13 year old and im trying to make a salad for mom haha thankyou

[@AussieManny]

Juicy.

[@howdini]

Thanks for watching! ;)

[@thezodiac8973]

Mark the professional tomato slicer, where there is an unsliced tomato THERE WILL BE JUSTICE

[@spitama1234]

TnxX

[@Giggidygiggidy12]

Hes pretty good, no Gordon Ramsey but still good

[@FHBStudio]

Oh god when he was sharpening the knife! Always move the blade away from yourself for safety! Still, good video. When I chop a tomato in 8ths I don't remove the core: I cut around it on the top half.

[@shawnvern]

He's gonna cut himself sharpening that knife. Kinda scared me a little lol.

[@hankoless]

@xBecky111 hell yeah !

[@rickrastardly]

All these sarcastic comments. Why did you click on this video then Genius’? Admittedly I was expecting more of a noval way of cutting a tomato, but it does what is says on the tin dunnit.

[@khallman75]

I was disturbed by the way he honed the knife. Mostly because he was drawing the blade toward his other hand. The same effect could be achieved by pointing the steel away from yourself. It's probably best not done over the cutting board and something you're planning to eat, either. The people who consider this video trivial probably aren't good at anything.

[@sera435]

Wow. This is a very old video

[@ProgamerEU]

u literally just put little metal dust all over the tomato and ur cutting board GG

[@petralik]

+ProgamerEU Actually he cleaned the knife on his rag before using it, so metal dust is removed

[@RVSupremacy]

+p.lik but he sharpened the knife right above the tomato 😕

[@daluckygit8019]

Cascading Style Sheets no its a honer

[@Anvesh2013]

That device only adjusts the non straight edge of the knife. Doesn't make powder out of it.

[@dannykhoo]

omfg that sound! 0:50

[@nohamenk]

Wow perfecto thanks lol

[@tjmanning10]

OHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WOO! I CAN SLICE A TOMATO I CAN FRY UP SOME PEAS YEAH

[@ChannelSTA]

This was a good video, but it didn't show me how to slice WHOLE slices. When I was searching for tomato slicing videos. The screenshot for this video shows tomatoes sliced without cutting it in half. I tried looking for a video that shows whole slices but there isn't anything good out there. Will try it this way but I was wanting to use these tomatoes for sandwiches and I fear that half-slices may make the sandwich messier to eat and have to deal with bits of tomato falling out of the sandwich.

[@Sonsho]

I see what you did there x)

[@musicmaniac95]

Holy fucking sharpness.

[@chazkickyoahh8381]

Home alone and craving a sandwich

[@fairyraffy]

NOW I UNDERSTAND WHY MY TOMATOES WAS LIKE I KILLED THEM..IT'S THE KNIFE..XD AND MY TECHNIC :P

[@tootsierolL734]

that awkward moment when both the top comments are the same...:)

[@IShallCallHimTaders]

Next we learn how to boil water and wash Rice. Stay tuned kids.

[@avocado2592]

+Muhammad Noushad Khan wtf?

[@muhammadnoushadkhan3258]

[@avocado2592]

+Muhammad Noushad Khan no everyday a lot of my family dies cuz of humans :'(

[@muhammadnoushadkhan3258]

[@muhammadnoushadkhan3258]

+Tomato watch my video that how i cut fastest cucumber

[@benuxis]

My life is complete

[@pedobearishot]

i bet sharp knifes will also really help cutting off fingers

[@PotrzebieConolly]

Well, I never knew tomatos had a core. Wish I had a closer look at the paring knife. I don't think I have one.

[@bernarddoherty2303]

Can you refer me to a page on how to make a tourniquet? Soon please?

[@lonewolf2444]

WOW he shaves dat knife GOOD ILL GIVE IT 100% LOL... ^o^

[@wllychng21]

lol I can totally see this guy being the torture expert of a bad guy in a James Bond. All explaining to you how he's going to use this knife to torture you.....

[@Kohiku]

@bukm2001 who doesnt eat french fries with tomato sos ?

[@troubadourperegrinus]

You don't need 2 knives, just hold the utility knife as you would have held the paring knife. Or just use the paring knife the whole time. You can do this with virtually any knife...

[@areurdytoparty]

Why do I feel so sad after he says"sliced tomatoes!" at the end? 😢

[@1Hawk2Hawks]

@ToyamaMatsuki if you dont know how to use a steel or use it wrong youll exualy end up chipping your knife ,and yes a stone does take som metal off but only 1 nmm you cant even see it. and i dont know where you learnd chemstry but you cant wash away magnetic properties.metal is magnetic becouse of it moncule form magnets excite thes moncules makeing it stick to it.so i wish you good luck whit washing off moncules

[@TheSupersiddh]

he speaks like ALBERTO DEL RIO !!!

[@alexanderskladovski]

Man, I wish I could sharpen my knife. I can't even cut through the skin without piercing it with a tip

[@NgaNguyen-rg2gw]

Matt Power

[@butchbrittany1208]

Cut my finger the other day. Now I'm here.

[@peternaranjo279]

Step 1: grab the full blade with your bare hands

[@Anvesh2013]

Is coring really necessary?

[@lmhlvr_]

Someone send this video to Louis Tomlinson

[@silvermushroom-gamifyevery6430]

@real4real1960 - Someone hasn't seen "expert" village's "how to use a santoku" video.

[@thescourge6989]

I hope the French trainer Institute doesn't charge much for tuition.

[@christophermathern6796]

So I guess getting knives from the local dollar store is not the best idea ?

[@pippofranco879]

The knife used in the video costs 1100$

[@Grufian]

In most supermarkets these days, the problem is getting tomatoes that are ripe and with some flavor, inasmuch as most are picked green and then placed in a gas chamber to induce the red color associated with ripeness.

[@PsychoFreke]

I wish my knives were that sharp..

[@steamedbunz]

the thumbnail shows someone slicing whole tomatoes and now you're telling us to cut it in half

[@jschannel5563]

I WANT IT TO BE ROUND 😂

[@Qjemuse]

i thought this vid was about slicing a tomato, not sharpening your goddamn knife

[@tnguyen318]

Somethings look and smell bad are. Somethings look and smell bad are not. Some things look and taste good are. Something that look and taste good are not. Allergies are a different matter.

[@pmilley88]

@arg13415 Honing doesn't really have a proper technique. Granted there is a correct angle that it needs to be held, but I have seen many chefs hone their knife in different ways. Just try a few ways and see what is most comfortable to you.

[@SantiFox]

Omfg... You don't need a video for this..

[@yesmcyes5604]

Why

[@luvmia97blogspot]

@real4real1960 i'm sorry,, i don't know how too :(

[@MrChocolate7777]
