I dislike attempts to rewrite history
I just stumbled across this, after watching one of her videos about seasoning a cast iron pan.
I have watched well over a hundred knife sharpening videos. What blows me away about this one:
I have watched well over a hundred knife sharpening videos. What blows me away about this one:
- Totally non-threatening. She makes it clear that anyone can sharpen a knife on stones, and that it isn't rocket science.
- Accurate. Pretty much everything she says in that video sounds right to me. Sure, as a knife geek, I can argue that she left out this or that. But I can't find anything I would disagree with.
- Didactics. The teaching technique in that video is outstanding. This is someone who doesn't just know the subject, it is someone who knows how to pass that knowledge on to someone who doesn't know. She shows people how to do things without being over-bearing, casting herself as an expert, without ego, and tells them to have a go without being afraid.
