Some pics of my main use kitchen knives, (sitting on a handmade breadboard I commissioned from a local antiques restorer, because I'm the kind of man who likes to be able to tell people he has a handmade breadboard)

Mostly Wusthoff trident Grand Prix , they arent an Uber steel , but take a good edge and sharpen easily . I have one Global small Santoku , some globals don't handle well for me , this one feels great .

I'm planning to get a Kai Shun 8" cheffy thing to replace my 10" Wusthoff .

Globals here as well. Nice knifes but a pain to sharpen (for me that is). Luckely I do not have to do that to often.

I'd love to get a shun santoku and chinese cleaver, but shelling out $400 for kitchen knives is way out of my budget.  :(

Think I should add my kitchen knives

My Kitchen Steel and Victorinox kitchen knife



Kitchen Devil, ham knife 25year old
Kitchen Devil, bread knife carboot
Sabatier Sparky, re-handle  ;)
Rockingham Forge, nice knife good size
Pound shop, I was surprised how sharp and useful this is  :o
John Lewis made in Sheffield, Nice flexible serrated knife
Expensive serrated nasty smurf knife, cut me more than once  >:(
Sparky Spork  :D
Shark slicing knife
Sabatier, carboot, sharpened and waiting to live with a Mate



Sparky Sabatier from above :D

That's a little outside my skill set
But then again, that's never stopped me in the past  :D

Some shots, though I also use Opinels, Mora and some slipjoints if I have to.

I have posted these pictures before.

I'm also the kind of man that owns a handmade bread board,  :D
A friend used to have furniture maker student's as lodgers, one Guy made an artful wood and canvas lamp/sculpture which I helped wire  :angel:
In return he made me a chopping board (I wouldn't have minded if it had been a little bigger)
Its more than 10 years old and still in one piece  :tu:



Oh and not forgetting this little chap  :)

My knife addiction started with kitchen knives, I own 29 high quality blades  ::)

My favourites are the Fallkniven Blue Whale, which I consider to be the best chefs knife I ever used. Tojiro makes great blades too, I like the Flash line best. Oh, and Solicut from Germany. A small knifemaker compared to other Solingen based brands, but imho the best one.

I use a traditional chinese cleaver a lot too. I even own an Ulu, but it hardly ever sees any use. Not to forget my Güde bread knife. That´s not a knife, it is a bloody SWORD!
