There may always be room for Jell-O, but it rarely needs sharpening.

The person behind the YouTube channel Kiwami Japan somehow made an actual knife using gelatin candies. He took a few blobs of it, melted it down, then shaped it with the help of a regular knife.

Then, with the help of an air purifier, he dried the bright green gelatin until it was hard enough to sharpen, which he did with a number of diamond whetstones. The whole process took a few days.

With his new gelatin knife, he cut up a zucchini. An impressive feat -- and he claims it's one of the top three sharpest knives he's ever made, followed by carbon fiber and pasta.

Guess Jell-O's not just for dessert anymore.
