I received mine today and stabbed myself in the finger while washing it. Those bad boys are sharp!

LOL! I stabbed myself while using it. Not yet used to a longer chef's knife. Wicked sharp out of the package

Thunder77 I think I had out of the package less then 30 seconds before I was bleeding. I was pretty impressed with myself!

I went to a game tonight and walked to a bar afterwards. I ordered a bowl of chili and some drinks and what did I see? The exact knife being used by the kitchen staff.

How do you do I
see you've met my
faithful
handyman
He's just a little brought down because
When you knocked
He thought you were the
candyman
Don't get strung out by the way I look
Don't judge a book by it's cover
I'm not much of a man
by the light of day
But by night I'm one hell of a lover...

Weber Summit Kamado with SnS and Vortex.. Broil King Baron, Primo Oval Junior. Primo XL. Love grilling steaks, ribs, and chicken. Need to master smoked salmon. Absolutely love anything to do with baking bread. Favorite cool weather beer: Sam Adams Octoberfest Favorite warm weather beer: Yuengling Traditional Lager. All-time favorite drink: Single Malt Scotch
Attjack , I'm kinda mad at you right now. You went and posted that, and of course I had to go buy another knife that I have to explain to the wife. I think I can get away with it though. Under 10 bucks? Bargain. I have a Mercer 10" bread knife, and we all love it.

There are nice! I like the feel of the handle. Haven’t used them yet, and it will be a while until I do. Going to keep them in the packaging for transport to the lake. But thanks again for these.
May any end up getting the holders for the three I bought. Not sure if I want these in and out of the knife block....

* - Weber 26.75" OTG
* - Weber 22.5" Premium cloaked in Crimson
* - Slow 'N Sear
* - Smoke E-Z - 26.75" (The Grain Silo)
* - Lodge Sportsman Grill
* - Weber Rapid Fire Chimney Starter
* - Thermoworks ThermoPop
* - Thermoworks Mk4
* - Thermoworks Dot
* - iGrill2 - 4 probes
* - Favorite Beer - the cold one in my hand (craft beers of all flavors; haven't had a blue yummy in over 6 years) my tastes change with the season so it is difficult to name just a couple. However, I will occasionally have a vanilla porter float in the summer (Empyrean Vanilla Porter w/a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream) as I usually drink stouts & porters in the colder months, pale ales & IPAs in the warmer months. I have to add Not Your Father's Root Beer to beers I use for floats.
* - Booze - I don't really have a favorite, but lean towards single malt Scotch & Irish whiskey
* - Wines - Reds: mainly the heavy stuff mixed in with the occasional pinot noir ( I have yet to meet a malbec I didn't like); Whites: German & Nebraska (hey, I have to support the home team)
* - Favorite Spice outlets - Volcanic Peppers - Bellevue, NE
* - Current butchers: Cure - Ft. Calhoun
I went with the more expensive 8" chef knife because I have been wanting a smaller chef's knife. I love it, the wife loves it so I will be thinking about purchasing some other flavor...maybe a boning knife.

Mine showed up today, have not used it other then to quick try it out on a tomato. It certainly arrives very sharp. more impressed at the weight of it, I was expecting a really off balance knife, and it does not seem to be. I look forward to using it more this weekend.

I am hoping to get a 8 inch still, ( I was looking at the Victorinox fibrox, had really good ratings from test kitchen ( "their favorite" ) and I want to get a 6 inch chefs, maybe (probably) will look at the 12 inch as well. But, with my next purchase I will need to order a knife roll, it is becoming a necessity for organization purposes alone. But, now I have a 12 inch in my mind, thanks for that LOL

FINALLY got home long enough to check out this knife. (Leaving again for FL on Monday. Sheesh LOL)
Anyway...amazingly sharp out of the box. That’s a plus...and no complaints there.
MUCH lighter than the forged knives I usually use, but that WAS expected. A plus for some, a negative for others. YMMV (I generally shy away from stamped knives. That’s just me. That said, I could purchase at least 15 of these for the price of my "workhorse " knife.)
Overall, not a bad knife to wield...and the price makes it a stoopid good bargain.
So much so that I think I might order several more in this & other sizes...so that I won’t worry about them or get fast onset Tourette’s when a friend decides to "help." ;-)

I used it to cut a sweet potato into fries last night, and then this today. Really did a good job on the finer cutting of the parsley, oregano, and cilantro. I made that bowl that is in the final product. I need to get back to some clay classes now that I know what colors and size bowls I want for prep and serving.
