Wouldn’t that bruise/smash the back of it? Put on an oven mitt of your aim is that bad.
Either way, you're not supposed to smash the pit, just tap it with a sharp knife so that it gets deep enough into it so you can twist it out. It sounds like people are swinging their knives like swords to try to get their knives like halfway deep into the pit lol
My method is to get someone to throw the avocados at me, whilst I attempt to slice them Fruit Ninja style.
It's not the most effective method, however it kind of sometimes works. If Dave's throw is strong enough, it saves time spent mashing them for guacamole too.
It doesn't harm it at all. The knife sinking into the pit absorbs the shock, and besides you're about to eat it. Most injuries aren't caused by terrible aim, they're because the pit is slippery and curved, so just a little wrong angle can send the blade sliding off and into the hand. Especially when people whack too hard, and/or started the tequila or cannabis before the guac. That's why you make putting it down a habit, so your muscle memory will override your stupidity.
If you're not going to eat the whole avocado, put it in the fridge with the pit still in it (and the open part covered) to keep it green.
