If you're a knife snob and you think the ones I got aren't that great, tell me- you won't hurt my feelings. I'll get that out of the way first.
If you've ever read my posts on knives you may remember that I know zilch about knives. In fact, 95% of the knives I have right now are the cheapies from Target that we got on our wedding 17yrs ago. I do have 2 nice trimming knives and a brisket sword, but most of the others are all cheap junk that we've just dealt with for a long time, with the occasional simple sharpening effort.
So I bought my wife a new set of knives, Emeril Lagassee. They are stainless steel handles with full tang and carbon stainless blades. Please let me know what you may knwo or suspect about these, I am curious. If you think they're junk it's ok, tell me. I won't return them, they will stay in my kitchen for perhaps another 17yrs, lol. My wife is super pleased, but we know nothing about knives other than these feel light but sturdy, very comfy ergonomic easy to hold handles, and have killer edges on them. From common knowledge I do know stainless are obviously purdier, decrease the cost, and shorten edge life, & adding carbon adds toughness & edge retention but a chance of easier tarnishing.
In these pics they aren't washed, so they still have packing residue and dust on them.
