OK so I tried this. First of all, onions get slippery when wet. I don't see how that's a good idea when I've got a scary German knife in my hand. Second of all, how do you keep the onion pieces from not floating away? If it's under a stream of water, it gets carried off (or it did for me). And lastly, how can you make smaller cuts under water? You guys must be awesome at cutting because I can't chop like that unless it's on a board on the counter.
