Was he trying to impress me?

So a few days ago, my brother had some friends over. I was taking photos with my camera for fun (not of anything in particular though) and one of them was in the kitchen with me. I’m not sure where the others were but they’re not really important to the story. Anyways, as I’m adjusting my camera settings, he turns to ask me (I was behind him) “do you want to split a mango?” Before I could reply, he, while staring at me, takes a chefs knife and tries to cut the mango in half without looking. When the mango only makes it part of the way through, he says something like ‘aww it didn’t work.’ I just say something to him like ‘don’t worry. Also that’s a chefs knife so be careful.’ I told this to my friend who thinks he was trying to impress me but I myself am not so sure.
