I was wondering if anyone had any fun tricks they use their knives for.
I know I use my global vegetable knife to smash garlic and other small things. I also like it to transport my diced onions balanced on the blade, but I feel that these are quite common tricks, does anyone have any other fun ones?
;)

Mince (mash) garlic with the spine of a knife. Best with sharp corners, not rounded.

tenderize with the spine (chinese cleaver style).

Crush with the butt of the handle. (chinese cleavers again)
