Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Smoothing without smooth
I want to smooth an object, without the smooth command. Because when I use that i get this:

I want the lines all fluent and stuff but I don't want it to get ugly, with the shades and stuff. If you don't understand me or have further questions just reply.
Edit: I forgot this: how do you make holes in an object like on this picture: https://www.kuttersknives.com/product_images/kr_22.jpg

answer for number 2: boolean. create the shape (using a cylinder, etc) that you want to take out of your blade, and then do a subtract. (i'd do that before the smooth, but that's just me.)
Accept no substitutions.
