i just bought a set of kitchen knives will share pictures as they received

 

My lovely friends and family know I cook at home and in the city for the Church of England church and the Hare Kryshnas so...
For Christmas they got me some relatively inexpensive but lovely knives plus more wooden chopping boards a pizza cutter, a can opener, whetstone holders, diamond sharpening plates an electric blender and a Ruixin pro 009 fixed angle rig.
The whole caboodle must have cost over $400 - I am so lucky!
My tiny kitch is chocka - it can`t take any more equipment.I love big rectangular Asian knives - I have about 20 now!

From the left is an eight inch 1 kg carbon steel bone chopper with wooden handle and 6mm thick blade - razor sharp out of the box - fabulous.
There is two 8 inch Shibazi all stainless steel cleavers - amazing workhorses.
The top middle middle one is a Granton of Sheffield - England extra wide 12" slicer with black plastic handle and rounded tip.
Just below the big long knife is a Chinese 9" yanagiba single bezel with maple handle.
The four knives with holes in the blades and wooden handles are light, scary sharp and a total bargain for the quality.
The all black one is a 6" ceramic nakiri which is fantastic - light and very sharp.
The two budget medium sized 7" Chinese chef knives are light and purposefull.
Below the knives are three new chopping boards which are terrific too.Two good oak ones and a little beech one.
Now I have plenty of cooking stuff to play with - but no more room to store it !!!

 

I've not seen the drilled holes before. Very interesting.

 

Thanks for the reply Wagner the Wehrwolf.
I got the 4 Asian style blades with holes for Christmas - they are supposed to help with food release because they don`t suck so much and they do work.They were only about $25 I think.They`re really light with thin blades that don`t wobble and came scary sharp out of the box.They`re high carbon stainless but I don`t know the formula; it wasn`t specified.

 

I need another Sabatier like I need another hole in my head. But I didn't have this one. Sabatier 589.

 

Very nice! It could do double duty to repel pirates from your ship in a pinch.

 

What`s that - a 13" Sebatier cooks knife - that`s gorgeous Wagner the Wehrwolf - It will last a lifetime - can cut anything and is tough as old boots.

I only have three old stainless Sebatiers - a 3" paring with the tip snapped off and a thinned 6" and plus a thin stamped 8" bread knife and they`ve all been heavily abused but they still cut fine.
