Maybe that was a bad example but knife skills can be sexy don't you think? [www.youtube.com] Re: Question about Young Coconuts

Date: December 16, 2010 11:55AM So I tried the machete (single chop) method experimenting on a brown coconut, noting there are times to gently cut on the equator and times to cut pole to pole, this being the later. I sharpened the blade, put on my safey glasses, went outdoors and set the old coconut on a chopping block and took a huge swing down on it impacting about 3cm off center. It wasn't accurate enough just grazing the hard shell and violently glancing off to the side. So I set it up again, the second swing coming down about 2cm off center taking out a good chunk of one hemisphere sending it in shattered pieces scattered a few meters away, the machete again sharply glancing off to the side. I think I'll stick to tapping around the equator with a hammer when using mature coconuts.
One of these days I hope to get some green coconuts to practice on. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 12/16/2010 12:09PM by loeve. Re: Question about Young Coconuts

> > "You say you've ridden here on a horse? You've > got two coconuts and your bangen em tegeda!" I was just thinking the Monty Python coconut clip deserved a proper quote -- ARTHUR: Whoa there! [clop clop] GUARD #1: Halt! Who goes there? ARTHUR: It is I, Arthur, son of Uther Pendragon, from the castle of Camelot. King of the Britons, defeator of the Saxons, sovereign of all England! GUARD #1: Pull the other one! ARTHUR: I am. And this my trusty servant Patsy. We have ridden the length and breadth of the land in search of knights who will join me in my court of Camelot. I must speak with your lord and master. GUARD #1: What, ridden on a horse? ARTHUR: Yes! GUARD #1: You're using coconuts! ARTHUR: What? GUARD #1: You've got two empty halves of coconut and you're bangin' 'em together. ARTHUR: So? We have ridden since the snows of winter covered this land, through the kingdom of Mercea, through-- GUARD #1: Where'd you get the coconut? ARTHUR: We found them. GUARD #1: Found them? In Mercea? The coconut's tropical! ARTHUR: What do you mean? GUARD #1: Well, this is a temperate zone. ARTHUR: The swallow may fly south with the sun or the house martin or the plover may seek warmer climes in winter yet these are not strangers to our land. GUARD #1: Are you suggesting coconuts are migratory? ARTHUR: Not at all, they could be carried. GUARD #1: What -- a swallow carrying a coconut? ARTHUR: It could grip it by the husk! GUARD #1: It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird could not carry a 1 pound coconut.
