[ John shouldn't be surprised that Accelerator is taking this seriously, and... he's not. Somehow he didn't doubt that Accelerator would take this seriously. But he has no real criticism of his peeling, it's the work of someone unfamiliar with the movement. Nothing that practice can't solve.

When Accelerator is finished John moves the bowl with carrot peel scraps aside and pulls the cutting board closer. ]


Pay attention to how I'm holding the knife, especially my off hand. Tuck your fingers slightly so the blade slides against the back of your fingers, not towards the finger tips.

[ He carefully demonstrates the correct position for both hands and slices the tip of the carrot off, then tosses it in the scraps bowl. Then he slices quarter inch disks from the carrot, going an inch up on the vegetable. The knife gets placed down and he slides the cutting board over to Accelerator. ]

Take it slow.
