First sample cut, here’s a friendly hint, hack, whatever you want to call it but it’s the proper use of a steak knife: (I don’t understand how people can grow up not knowing how to use a knife.) The piece of meat that your fork goes into, is the piece you’re cutting to eat. Your knife carves around that piece. You don’t put the fork into the big part of the meat and cut a piece away from the fork. I find that so odd. Happy 10th anniversary, though folks. It looks looks like you’ve discovered one of Oahu’s hidden gems for prime rib. Thanks for sharing.
great video and you critique the woman's knife technique? sheesh. thinking about how you do it (holding the piece you intend to eat with the fork to cut around the fork seems odd to me). btw, I do exactly what you describe what not to do: I hold the larger piece of meat down with a fork in my left hand, cut away a bite-sized piece with a knife in my right hand, and then switch the fork to my right hand to pick up the smaller piece to eat. other things to consider: do you cut multiple pieces to eat or one piece at a time? (fine dining rules supposedly insist cutting one piece at a time) what about buttering bread? most people butter too big a piece of bread and bite through the butter. Old-school used to say you tear or cut a bite-sized piece of bread and butter that and eat it with one bite, rather than see your bite marks in the butter and bread as it sits on the plate (you can then still share). lots to consider for sure. let the lovely couple eat. congrats you two! my own marriage is in the 27th year...

how do you eat your corn on the cob? like a side-to-side typewriter, or vertically in columns? lots of interesting things in food etiquette....
You think she cuts poorly? Watch her try to eat Bao at Din Tai Fung 🤣
