So back around Christmas we had some friends here for 2 weeks and somehow my main prep knife got a boo boo:
This was my first ever "nice" knife, and while i know it isn't spectacular, I was pretty steamed. But, I've continued to use it and just gritted my teeth.
So yesterday I saw a special on Falsebook about a knife for sale on Amazon. It was regularly $130, but was being offered for "half price" with a one-time personally-generated code from their website - and no, I didn't have to sign up for a mailing list or give them my information or what-have-you. And I happened to have a $58 credit in my Amazon account for a FireTV 4k I returned this week, so... I decided to go for it. Here is the link:
It looks decent, and it was payday, and I figured, "For under $20 out of pocket, it's worth a shot, right?" Right.
Interestingly enough, when I put it in my cart I decided to check on something and I increased the number in my cart to 2, then to 3, and sure enough, the discount applied to all of them. Sweet!
So I went ahead and purchased 2, total out of pocket $76.81 with tax and all. I was kinda crossing my fingers wondering whether they would cancel my order or one of my knives since I wasn't sure I was supposed to be able to apply the discount to more than one item, but I did get a shipping notification, so we'll see, eh?
Interestingly, it claims an 8-12º sharpening angle. My old one above was 15º, so it said.
I'll post some more pics when they get here, and a quick review. Changing my diet a lot lately, so doing a lot more veggie slicing and such.
