Cooking knives

[CCooper]

Wusthof Classic and a Benchmade Meatcrafter get most of the use at our house. I do also like Knives of Alaska filet knives in the kitchen as well.

Henckle , Wusthof and Victorinox both at home and camp. My steak knife at camp is a old Cutco hunting knife.

We mostly have global knives. Fairly comfortable, all stainless so no issues with corrosion and they clean easily.

We have a whustof set for in the kitchen. It is quality kit.

I still like a heavy one that I can sharpen easily at home--Wustof Classic Cook 8 Inch Chef's knife.

Clovis, is your knife stainless steel or high carbon version?

The wife likes wood handles and I like Victorinox industrial black plastic, but with 2 high quality chefs knives and this knife, this is the one we both pick first.

Sold cutco over 30 years ago. We have a full set.

We abuse the heck out of them. They all go in the dishwasher.

I use the chefs knife more than anything and a carbon rod keeps it more than serviceable for kitchen work.

They are not the best manufacturered knives by a long shot, BUT, you can send them in whenever you want, and they sharpen them and replace any damaged ones free of charge. We send ours in probably every 18 months or so. Only pay for shipping to get them there.

A number of years ago we had one my wife had set down the handle on the stove accidentally. They have us a brand new one free of charge.

Dexter-russel. Pretty solid bang for your buck and easy to sharpen

A restaurant owner buddy turned me on to Mercer- Quality knives at a reasonable cost.

I got a set of Mercers at what I thought was very reasonable. Outstanding knives. I touch them up once every other week with a strop.

My wife loves them.

I've been using these 3 for the past 5 years or so. I keep them away from my wife and sharpen on waterstones. I've been happy with them .

Victorinox for sure. They are popular for good reason.

My wife went to culinary school, so she uses our knives, I’m just the sharpener

Another vote for Misen. I use an 8" chef's & a 6" utility for literally everything. I've had them 3 years & they've been to the stones twice now & get hit on a smooth steel every use. They have nice heft & balance, nice ergonomics & are a LOT of knife for the money.

 

[Clovis]

Clovis, is your knife stainless steel or high carbon version?

Stainless--I wish I had picked up one of the high carbon anniversary knives when they were around and discounted, but still very happy with the stainless version.

Dropped my cutco knives off at the shop in the morning, picked them up in the afternoon. All ready to go.

Perks of driving past the place.

 

[Yoder]

Don't put them in the dishwasher.

 

[mtwarden]

^ I'm regularly having to pull our knives out of the dishwasher; my wife listens about as well as I do

 

[intunegp]

Kinda surprised the "knife" brands aren't more popular with the Roksliders.

I have some of the Spyderco kitchen knives with the black polypropylene handles and MBS-26 steel and they're great. I also recently got a Vosteed Morgan series with a 3-layer 9Cr18MoV damascus blade and G-10 handle that is really nice...think I paid less than $30 on sale on Amazon.

Have always been curious about the Kershaw/KAI, Case, Mora, Ontario and Cold Steel culinary offerings.
