Back in 2015 at the Iowa State Fair meat judging, I saw a guy break down a hog in under four minutes.

He wasn't rushing, just had a perfect flow with his boning knife. I realized I was overthinking every cut, trying to be too careful. I started practicing that smooth, continuous motion on my own time and it changed my whole pace on the block. Anyone else pick up a game-changing technique from watching a competitor work?

Watching that off-hand setup is everything.

Yeah that flow thing is key. Was it just the speed, or did you notice him doing something specific with his off hand to set up each cut?
