前(まえ)から手前(てまえ)に引(ひ)いても全然(ぜんぜん)動(うご)かないんです……敷居(しきい)を越(こ)える前(まえ)に車輪(しゃりん)が壊(こわ)れてしまいそうです!

繊細(せんさい)な鱗(うろこ)と銀色(ぎんいろ)のぬめりを傷(きず)つけぬよう刃先(はさき)で優(やさ)しく払(はら)い、内臓(ないぞう)を包(つつ)む黒(くろ)い腹膜(ふくまく)を破(やぶ)らずに取(と)り除(のぞ)く。細胞(さいぼう)を潰(つぶ)す押(お)し切(き)りは厳禁(げんきん)だ。柳刃(やなぎば)の刃(は)元(もと)から切(き)っ先(さき)までを長(なが)く使(つか)い、疾風(しっぷう)の如(ごと)き引(ひ)き切(き)りの一手(いって)で、透(す)き通(とお)るような背(せ)ごしを切(き)り落(お)としてみせよう。

Brushing gently with the tip of the blade so as not to damage the delicate scales and the silvery slime, I remove the black membrane around the innards without breaking it. Push-cutting, which crushes the cells, is strictly forbidden. Using the yanagiba's whole length from heel to point, with a single draw-slice as swift as a gale, I'll cut off a see-through, bone-in sego-shi slice. (N1 lesson 158)
