People say they're amazing and really hold an edge.I was just thinking about buying a new chef knife. I bought a JA set from Kohls a year ago but those carbon steel Japanese knives are calling my name.![]()

Yeah it's not so much about Bourdain himself, I just loving seeing videos of crafty stuff like this.Thanks for posting. Great video.
Breh........ I spent like 3 hrs watching that shyt and I aint even realize itYeah it's not so much about Bourdain himself, I just loving seeing videos of crafty stuff like this.
For a while I was hooked on watching those "How It's Made" marathons on the Science Channel
Definitely don't need to go that expensive.I need a reliable knife. This probably out of my price range, but I'm subbing for later.

The Victorinox Fibrox Chef's Knife is widely considered the best affordable chef's knife on the market and Amazon sells it for anywhere between $30 and $40.
Currently $33.

and America's Test Kitchen knife review here:
Yeah it's definitely a luxury item.thats the knife I have, Ive worked with someone who has a Kramer....they are def great but Id never spend that much for a knife unless I was making huge money being the head chef at a resort.

breh I been in the cooking industry since I was 15, every time I try to get out, I go back in. glad others here appreciate quality cookwareYeah it's definitely a luxury item.
If you work in a kitchen for 10, 12 hours a day and you want something sharp that is comfortable in the hand....I guess it's worth considering.
But $300-$400+ (depending on the knife) is a little insane.
I recently spent $100 on an All-Clad roasting pan for Thanksgiving and even that hurt to spend. But it's pretty damn good quality and should last for years.
I don't know what kind of person would spend $200+ on a Mauviel pan
Sorry for this cookware nerding out
