Re: Bread knife
I have always wanted a Gude, but never pulled the trigger. The Tojiro ITK is a great knife. Easy to rehandle if you want to add some bling. I have used the Kohetsu, but preferred the Tojiro and oddly enough my Shun.

Re: Carbon Skillets
...discovered the bottom was "domed"...so i emailed the folks at Smithey...And they replied they were made that way...and sadly I sent it back. Excuse my ignorance but what would be the purpose of making it this way? :? Good question Jeff, all they said was its made that way. There was no...

Re: Which suji would you pick and why
As a preface...i have never touched a Shindo...but for a dedicated protein slicer I actually don't like super thin edges. For my cutting style, in this situation, I prefer the grind of the kohetsu. In addition, I think they do a bang up job with blue 2 although in my experience the choil could use a...

Re: Anyone use a clever?
Yes, all the time. I use it for most things where I would use a chef knife. It slices, it dices and scoops I even use it as a spatula at times. I have never used the one linked, but it looks like a great little knife. Very similar to the small cck.

Re: Show us your new knife!
[/quote] A lovely knife and - not surprising given your posts - a lovely board. :). Is that slicer as thick at the spine as it looks, or was it forged very thin? That scaling is really beautiful. I'm kinda a sucker for that kinda of natural finish on US customs. For whatever reason, it tends to look...

Re: Damascus etch making knife sticky
Yes. Fine grit sandpaper, 1000 grit will work. It will mute the contrast, but will not drag as much.

Re: Do carbon knives stain food?
Yes, definitely, especially with acidic foods. While the knife is getting a patina you will need to wipe often.

Re: Show us your new knife!
I have been drooling over Daniel's work, process and polishing for years and finally got my hands on one of his knives. It's not Wootz, but still a beauty.

Re: What did you cook today?
The purists will say this is a travesty, but you would have a hard time convincing me there is a better cooking apparatus than a wok for Rice Krispy treats. So simple and so good...especially on a snow day.

Re: Impulse buy? Red light or green light
I would get it, but size up to 240. As nimble as it is, it wouldn't feel cumbersome moving from your 210.
