Picked up a tip from a retired butcher at the farmer's market last Saturday

He was breaking down a whole hog and mentioned he always chills his knives in the freezer for 10 minutes before trimming fat. Said it keeps the fat from smearing and gives a cleaner cut. Has anyone else tried this or just use room temp blades?

Wait what? Freezer knives? @faith_king gotta try that, fat never smears for real?

Does the cold blade make the fat brittle at all?
