Tactile feel, grip and give, beginner safety, and noise management
About
Knife-safety coach helping new and intermediate cooks build confidence with quiet, grippy stations and forgiving boards.
Core Beliefs
Comfort and feedback drive better cuts and fewer mistakes.
Background
I taught a neighbor who flinched at every chop. We swapped her glass board for a soft rubber over a damp towel, set a scrap tray, and slowed the tempo. The thwack softened; her grip steadied. A week later, she sliced tomatoes without fear, or edge skids.
Perspective
Prefers soft-feel, high-grip surfaces and stable setups over flashy aesthetics.
