Knife set

Thug

I have now got a complete set of Stella Damaske knives.
These are unbelievably sharp and look and feel great.
The RRP start at £50 for the paring and £120 for the chefs.
I paid less than this though.

Forgive the home made knife wall block.

Hah, thread revival!
Got some money for my birthday, decided to get myself some knives.
Ordered a Tojiro DP F-808 (210mm chef's knife) and another 12cm utility knife, along with an acacia end-grain board. These'll be my first proper knives, so I'm unnaturally excited. I'll need to decide on a sharpening method in a couple of months or so, which is probably going to be harder than choosing the knives! The Knife Wizard KE198 looks like a simple newbie solution; as much as I would like to use a set of stones (say, a 1000 and an 8000) realistically I just don't have the time nor patience to learn to use them properly.

I now also regret not buying the Ikea Slitbar damascus knives when they were available... then again I had far less cashflow back then!

Now, just need to wait for the postman...

...sounds like the confession of a serial killer.

IKEA wheel sharpener is very good.

Dexter, much?

Nah, a quiet powered knife and hydrofluoric acid would be my choice. Hypothetically speaking, of course.

I have to be careful with what I use - they're Japanese knives so they only have a 15 degree angle on each side. I'll look into that one though, looks pretty similar to the one that Global themselves sell...

I think you would need a pretty patient victim

You might be okay but yes, worth checking! Personally though, I feel that there are far better knives than Global for the money!
