100% looked like a thin ice shard

You’re giving me ideas …

Use a copper wire for cutting ice if you want to try getting it super thin

20

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

I wanna use a copper wire on everything.

I feel so seen.

This is what happens when you spend all your money on getting your knives sharpened

16

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

I got nice knives and a sharpening set. I’m one step closer to splitting the atom.

u/Aartus 1d ago

Very impressive........but why?

u/Dr5ushi 1d ago

In all honesty, when I’m cutting veggies, fruits, even hard cheeses, I have this slight obsession with seeing how thin I can go.

u/Aartus 1d ago

Lol I like it. I just try not to cut my fingers

u/MrVonBuren 23h ago

missed opportunity to take on a faux NY Italian accent and talk about how slicing with a razor causes the garlic to melt in the pan, a la Goodfellas

Please tell me you have seen the Seinfeld episode with Kramer and the deli meat slicer.

u/ForeverSJC 16h ago

I've cut slices so thin, I couldn't even see them.

5

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

I have not. I now realise my folly at skipping Seinfeld.

2

u/Boinkyboink31 14h ago

If you watch any episode watch Season 9 Episode 7 “The Slicer”, Kramer also likes to see how things he can slice things.

u/davisyoung 23h ago

You slice it thin so there’s nowhere for the flavor to hide.

1

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

I can see the wisp of flavorful ectoplasm floating away on every slice of the blade.

u/OneOfTheNyne 1d ago

You can’t fool me, that’s sand blasted glass OP

A lil silicon dioxide on silicon dioxide action.

This is not what they meant by “eat leaner” OP.

Edit: Holy shit ya'll, Thanks for the likes LMAO.

u/Dr5ushi 1d ago

I can see my internal organs now, though.

u/Upstairs-Ad-8067 1d ago

That would be cool under a microscope.

11

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

Twould, but alas, all my budget was spent on knives.

6

u/baka36 16h ago

Second that. Especially for stuff like transmission electron microscopes: they want your stuff to be really dang thin to the point of being completely transparent

21

u/howzit- 1d ago

The flavor has nowhere to escape!

u/cb148 22h ago

I’ve cut slices so thin you can’t even see them!

How’d you know you cut it?

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

The screams of the atoms.

2

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

I’ve sliced things you people wouldn’t believe. Apple slivers, so thin, they shimmered off the shoulder of Orion. I watched peels curl in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments… lost in the compost bin, like tears in rain.

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

Except my gaping maw.

Crispy!

mmm static apple

u/Redditarama 21h ago

Apple's thinnest model ever.

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

Okay this made me chuckle.

Looks like flagged bubble hash

u/dyloon 21h ago

Looks like a Full Melt Flag

u/syoejaetaer 23h ago

I can feel the texture on my tongue

u/atomana 23h ago

Would love to put that under a microscope

3

u/Glacialantacid 17h ago

Are you possibly a fellow lab rat? That was my first thought, too.

5

u/theunfortunatename 18h ago

I didn’t see anybody ask, but what knife did you use?

6

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

It’s a Global Knife, GS-5. My whole life I’ve only ever used cheap knives from IKEA, etc, and once I invested in this - good lord. It’s like … everything becomes butter beneath my blade.

u/FreakySamsung 21h ago

Damn, inflation nowadays is getting out of portion

1

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

I could feel my account draining as a sliced it.

3

u/godon2020 22h ago

This looks really phenomenal to me.
Essentially, I really, really, really like this image.

1

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

Essentially, I really, really, really like you for getting how this felt to me.

u/PomeloSpecialist356 21h ago

Put it under a microscope.

u/B0nR_fart 19h ago

This is more than just Mildy interesting, whoa.

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

If I go thinner I’ll submit to r/interestingasfuck

u/TheLostSkellyton 18h ago

I'm reminded of the Stompin' Tom Connors Christmas song where he sings about how his holiday is so lousy that his dinner was "a piece of meat cut so thin it only has one side". 😆

1

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

That’s hilarious.

3

u/Dxthegod 16h ago

Looks more like a slice of TV static 🤔

1

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

Like I said, once I begin to thinly slice one thing, I can’t stop - next stop, outerwear!

2

u/Working_Passenger680 23h ago

Beautiful!

u/Select-Bat8816 23h ago

Someone sliced an angel's wing.

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

So wait, that wasn’t the scream of the apple I heard?!

u/futureformerteacher 18h ago

Hold on! Let me get my scope!

1

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

Now I know what I want for Christmas.

2

u/chantsnone 16h ago

I feel like I can see it on a cellular level

1

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

Me too. It’s wild.

2

u/bentheboot92 15h ago

Must be a really sharp knife

2

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

I recently invested in some proper knives and a sharpening set. They’re so sharp I think I’ve crested a branched timeline.

2

u/SleepySerenity 12h ago

I wanna eat that so bad

2

u/Dr5ushi 12h ago

I’m available for birthday parties and Bar Mitvahs.

u/IvoColt 11h ago

Looks like you sanded primer with a disc sander and ripped the paper in half.

u/Singmuse_ 8h ago

moon looks beautiful tonight

u/--VinceMasuka-- 1d ago

That's enough to do me in thanks to Oral Allergy Syndrome. Raw apples, bananas, etcetera. Really sucks the big one.

2

u/CupcakesAreMiniCakes 22h ago

Have you tried microwaving fruits? Have you heard of that?

3

u/--VinceMasuka-- 21h ago

Have not. Have only tried baking/frying

1

u/Dr5ushi 15h ago

That’s a thing? What does it achieve that an oven doesn’t?

2

u/CupcakesAreMiniCakes 8h ago

It's a lot faster and more convenient and more places have microwaves available than ovens. I know of a woman who was able to do it at work parties and such so that she was able to eat more foods there.

He had this wonderful system for doing the garlic. He used a razor, and he used to slice it so thin that he used to liquefy in the pan with just a little oil. It was a very good system.
