It is. It's evil! And it's in sooo many recipes that I like.

As with anything else in life, if your wrist hurts, you're doing it wrong.

In this case, you need to use a damn sharp 8-10" chef's knife, scoring the skin at the beginning of a stroke, then gliding the blade forward and down through the squash.

Or just toss it in the air and get silly with a katana.
