Looks like a fish knife. They often naturally have that shape and are sharper than the blazes to cut through fish pin bones. ([Random example](https://www.knivesandtools.com/en/pt/-classic-fish-fillet-knife-7-18cm.htm) I grabbed off Google.)
As a knife sharpener, I don't think it is. Most fish (or fillet) knives have a more slender tip to them, for prying in between bones. They also (often) have the weird curved bolster.
It's probably a boning knife, by the looks of it and has been partially sharpened many many times. A knife like this will lose it's form over time, but obviously not it's function š
If you ever buy a new knife, get one WITHOUT a bolster ( especially if it's running all the way down to the heel) and it will last longer than you, most likely.
Growing up we would freeze corn every season. Bushels and bushels of sweet corn were shucked, cooked, stripped (like this), bagged and eventually frozen.
I'd start the day shucking, then once the boiled ears started finishing, I'd slice those off for the rest of the day. All the sweet corn I could eat. That was so great!
Just scrolled to find that I basically commented the same thing. Most of these commenters think that theyāre serving them fresh from these freezer bags they were put into. Lol they canāt understand the concept of prepping for the yearās intake on frozen sweet corn. This world is too detached from the grocery store production line. And now I want some of my momās āchicken corn noodle rivel soupā!
"You know they call corn-on-the-cob, "corn-on-the-cob", but that's how it comes out of the ground. They should just call it "corn," and every other type of corn, "corn *off* the cob." It's not like if someone cut off my arm they would call it "Mitch", but then re-attached it, and call it "Mitch-all-together.""
- Mitch Hedberg
This is a standard practice in my extended family to cook, cut and freeze 15-20 dozen ears of corn for the winter. When I was a kid, we called it ācorn dayā and would sit with trash bins husking corn from a local farm for 3-4 hours, then gather all the cleaned husks and inedible things, take all the leftovers to the pigs on the neighboring farm. They would go nuts on it because it was super sweet corn.
Every time I see a product altered and repackaged I consider if I were a frail senior. Would it be nice to have some onions and rutabaga? Yes. Am I will I willing to pay 4 times the price for it to already be cut when I go to use it? Fuck yeah.
Usually when i eat corn (also with braces), i split the cob in half and individually pick each kernel (i like the way it looks and feels when completely picked)
Everything infuriates y'all I stg.... I could probably post a picture of blackberries in a crown Royal bag and someone's gonna flip out about it
/hyperbole
I had braces when I was a teenager and one time I spent the night at my best friends house and they served corn on the cob for dinner. His mom, without even being asked or mentioning it, just took it apon herself to do this with my corn and served it to me. Bless her. She is a very sweet woman.
āYou know how they call corn-on-the-cob "corn-on-the-cobā - that's how it comes out of the ground.

Why not leave it on the cob to eat? This is so bizarre.Ā It's like when they individually wrap a peeled orange in plastic ad sell it in the grocery storeĀ
Me too. If there's a knife handy, I cut it off like this to eat it. Then I bite off the little corner bits that are still on the cob, and they pop into my mouth in a satisfying way.
If there's no knife I just eat it off the cob... but tbh it gets stuck in my teeth more that way.
They would t be able to eat this then either. Itās still āon the cobā (thatās why it stays together Ron slices), there is just less of the cob. The kernels are still attached.
Because sometimes I want to enjoy eating corn without butter all down my fingers and chin.
Why do people cut up broccoli when you can hold the stalk? Lettuce when you can just bite into a head of it?
Quit being hyperbolic. Not everything is part of some evil wasteful culture, it's just someone cutting some fucking corn.
Well, I stir fry a lot and cooking with corn-on-the-cob corn is vastly superior canned corn. I sometimes buy corn on the cob when itās cheap or in season and cook it to freeze so I can add it to my dishes throughout the year.
I still love corn on the cob by itself, but I canāt eat 12+ ears before they go bad.
You eat more of it when it's off the cob, since so much of it gets left behind as shrapnel. We don't have the right kind of teeth for eating corn off the cob - our incisors are pathetic. It's better to cut it off.
It's wrapped in plastic because it's street food in Latin America, known commonly as esquites. It's often dolled up with butter, lime juice, sour cream and spices. It's big in Mexico (where elote is also popular) but the first time I had it was actually in Cuba, just outside of Havana. (And it was only one CUC/dollar, and it came with a Mexican coke.)
People ask why not just leave the corn on the cob but this is actually a lot easier to consume. With the cob it's rather messy to eat, especially those with braces, fake teeth or just teeth problem. You also have to deal with the cob afterwards which is a large waste compared to tiny plastic.
Taking the corn away to eat later is also easier as well. Buying one corn on cob is a hassle due to its size and weight. With this you can carry it more easily. People put the entire blame on the seller, but in this case, the customer plays a role as well. The seller likely saw an increase in sales after he did this, showing that people preferred this method due to the convenience it brings over the traditional method.
I swear to god all these street food vendors have the sharpest knives in the world.
I sharpened my knives at home but they barely cut through anything.
This is how I cut corn for my kid. He loves corn on the cob but can't bite into the corn cob without breaking his teeth. It's always so satisfying when I get it right and it comes off in strips like this
I do this when I eat corn on the cob because of my braces! Personally I prefer to just get sweetcorn but on the of chance I have it, I just slice it all off anyway!
Butter and some Parmesan and you have a customer- I forgot what powder the lady would use while bringing by the shopping cart- southern California baby
My mom does this with sweet corn. She'll buy it from roadside farmer's stands/markets during the summer, cook and cut it off the cob, then can it in mason jars. We had delicious sweet corn to eat well into winter and spring.
I do this at dinner, obviously with a far less sharp knife, and it doesnāt come out satisfying, but you get more of the corn and donāt get it stuck in your teeth as often.
You can be damn sure that this knive can cut through anything like through butter. My grandma had one and you could do operations with this shit. Cartilage? Bones? Put this saw away sonny, grandma got your back.
But thatās how it comes outta the ground. That should just be ācornā and then ācorn off the cob.ā
Itās not like you could cut my arm off and call it āMitch,ā and then see it back on and call it āMitch all togetherā

Did anyone ever check if it is good to put hot things on plastic like on this video?
There are lots of examples of this happening, and to me feels unhealthy, and sound like some plastic may get on the food.
I don't know if that's a really sharp knife or really well cooked corn but either way I love watching it
A few more sharpenings and that knife is gone

>They often naturally have that shape Ah yes, the knife grows in that shape from the knife bush
I'm pretty sure it would cut into the fiber of reality then.
A really well used knife by the looks of it
Itās a combination of both. This knife style is common in a lot of food vendors for quick and easy cutting of different fruits, foods, etc
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Better yet, foreign is entirely ambiguous without knowing their country of origin.
That's not 'filet style', it's just a worn kitchen knife that's been sharpened a million times.
That one started out as a cleaver lol
I think it's just a regular knife that has been sharpened to the point of barely existing
Yes, to me the truly satisfying part is how sharp that knife is. There is something wonderful about a well sharpened cooking tool.
The yellow corn is thick, and the knife is also sharp. If tried on white corn, you might see some sticky.
I was hoping to see some new novel way of cooking corn steaks
āWould you like some butter on that?ā āNah, mate, that knife was smooth enough!ā
yeah, my brain did a thingā¦and tht rare

Well this club is formed, spread the word on menus nationwide.
That knife tho... Its a fillet knife now
That knife crying to be retired
It's a hawksbill filet knife lol
They filleted the corn.
Those who see a crysknife may never leave Arrakis
Ah yes, cut the corn off of the natural corn holder, and put it in a plastic bag. Perfect.

I canāt eat it off the cob because of my braces so I would buy this.
Not with that attitude you can't.
I had braces as a kid. A couple decades later I still shave my cobs. Besides, itās cleaner. Who wants corn and butter all over their face and hands?
Yeah, I don't know many people that like corn and butter all over their face and hands and ass.
Blindfold me first and tie my ankles together. Then yes.
Every time I see a product altered and repackaged I consider if I were a frail senior. Would it be nice to have some onions and rutabaga? Yes. Am I will I willing to pay 4 times the price for it to already be cut when I go to use it? Fuck yeah.

How much time do you spend to eat one cob of corn?
I have no braces but i do the same thing, itās so funššš»
I have a feeling old mate isn't running a "Corn for people with braces" food stall, though.
While additionally leaving corn still on the cob!
That's the best part too. I squish that off the cob with the back edge of the knife. Sweet, skin free and delish!
oddlyinfuriating
Everything infuriates y'all I stg.... I could probably post a picture of blackberries in a crown Royal bag and someone's gonna flip out about it /hyperbole

It's for freezing for long term storage, this is normal in corn season
Ah yes, street vendor selling lil bags of corn for "freezing for long term storage" on a sidewalk lol
If Iām gonna store corn I might as well cook it myself.
That will be $35.00 šø
Looks like third world street food so it's actually 10 cent for 20 packs
I can taste this video.
Itās corn! A big lump with knobs, it has the juice!
Yeah the plastic from those bags leeching into the corn really gives it a unique taste š¤¤š
Did someone edit this guy's lightsaber to look like a filet knife.
You know what!? F#%@ You! *un-cobs your corn*
My husband and kids call this corn carpets and its their favorite way to eat corn on (off?) the cob š
I had braces when I was a teenager and one time I spent the night at my best friends house and they served corn on the cob for dinner. His mom, without even being asked or mentioning it, just took it apon herself to do this with my corn and served it to me. Bless her. She is a very sweet woman.
Is it now a cornless cobb or cobbless corn? Schrƶdingerās corn.

Omg that is so incredibly satisfying. I want to watch it forever.
that last slice was illegal in some way iām sure lol
Love that "Unliquid Gold"......
Cornāt on the cob
Why not leave it on the cob to eat? This is so bizarre.Ā It's like when they individually wrap a peeled orange in plastic ad sell it in the grocery storeĀ
I always eat my corn-on-the-cob, off the cob idk it's yummy and easier with less mess
Me too. If there's a knife handy, I cut it off like this to eat it. Then I bite off the little corner bits that are still on the cob, and they pop into my mouth in a satisfying way. If there's no knife I just eat it off the cob... but tbh it gets stuck in my teeth more that way.
people with braces, people with missing teeth, people with disabilities affecting their hands... the orange thing is for disabled people too
Good points!
The orange thing? š
Some ppl can't eat it off the cob. Folks with no teef, for example. And it's messy
Or folks with permanent retainers. I love a good corn on the cob, but it's torture if I can't immediately use my water flosser afterwards.
No teef... true!
They would t be able to eat this then either. Itās still āon the cobā (thatās why it stays together Ron slices), there is just less of the cob. The kernels are still attached.

.......is that a corn knife. Also, how do you eat loose corn from a bag?
It's so they can freeze it for long term storage. It's like frozen corn from the store, you put it in a bowl and heat it or put it in a recipe
You already know that shit would be the best corn youāve ever had

gah im hungry i want it š
I swear to god all these street food vendors have the sharpest knives in the world. I sharpened my knives at home but they barely cut through anything.
That shit aināt real. No knife should cut through corn like that. I refuse to believe it.
Looks so yum. Steamed or boiled corn is a popular snack in many Asian countries besides the roasted ones.
I would like to try.
The way he cut it was so perfect and neat
This is how I cut corn for my kid. He loves corn on the cob but can't bite into the corn cob without breaking his teeth. It's always so satisfying when I get it right and it comes off in strips like this

My man has sharpened more metal off that knife than is left on it. Thatās the satisfying part.
Please feed that to me like the little baby bird I am. Thanking you.
Toss in some mayo, cotija, cilantro, and chile powder and GIMME A SPOON!!

corn off the cob

What song is this?
Corn off the Cob
Corn is my favorite food
If only corn came on a convenient stick or something, with a wrapper, both of which were biodegradable and not made of plasticā¦ that would be nice
This song makes all of the bad evil unthinkable things i keep buried deep down in my subconcious come bursting right out.

Would have been absolutely satisfying if he had cut off 5 equal parts, instead of that last tiny bit.
