This is a video of Italian knife vendor Giacomo Giovannitti demonstrating the incredibly sharp blade of a Japanese chef’s knife by cutting almost transparent, paper-thin slices of various fruits and vegetables. I’m gonna be honest, if this was an infomercial I would definitely be calling in the next 30 minutes to get the free bonus. Also, why do I get the feeling the burger joint around the corner from my apartment uses these knives? I don’t think I’ve ever gotten a slice of tomato from that place that I couldn’t read a newspaper through. “Maybe you should go somewhere else then.” But it’s so close. “Then stop complaining?” You know I cant do that.

Keep going for the soothing video.
