I have a classic chef already so we went with classic. Sora looks good though I haven’t ever seen one IRL.

Man I could use a new bread knife, but I can't justify dropping a hundo to slice bread.

it's great

Don't spend money on a bread knife.

I personally can't stand the straight shape of a bread knife, hitting my knuckles on the board sucks. I prefer an offset shape.

Also, the worst cuts with a knife that I have gotten come from a serrated blade.

These 2 work well, the serrations on the Dexter cut a bit more aggressively. i think the Dexter comes in a wood handle option as well if that's your thing.

Nice. Their pairing knife is tits. GREAT investment. Another nice one to go along with it is the Shun birds beak knife. Weirdo looking knife with a backwards curved blade that I ended up getting a TON of use from.

Can’t believe we already got our order. Guess it doesn’t hurt that they are like 5 Mike’s from my house...



The two on the left are new to compliment the chef’s we already had.

Someone on a local yard sale FB page has listed this as a Chef knife. Says: "Very good for working with meat."

In the kitchen probably not but if you got yer hands inside of an animal you probably want something with a hand guard and a heavy blade, my dad had some of those for dressing out game

Not for me or anyone I know that field dresses big game. Something like this is a better tool IMO: https://www.benchmade.com/15006-steep-country.html

Pa would be close to 100 if he was alive, that knife might be old school

Especially if the meat isn't dead yet.

That's obviously a Texas challah cutter wrought from fine Pakistani pot metal and Bangladeshi brass. The lone star on the ceremonial sheath is a dead giveaway.

2nd that rec, they are as cheap as $17 shipped.

I got this Wusthof Deli Knife as a gift recently and as much as I love my heavy ass Wusthof Chef’s knives, this thing has become crazy-useful. Bread, citrus, sammies, bagels, prep...

A nice addition, and something I didn’t even know I needed.

My dad used an old buck knife for whitetail, which I still have, but this is the tool if you want to skin, quarter, and bone out an elk in 30 minutes:



I also use a shitty filet knife and an amalgam of basically this in the pack at all times, along with extra blades for the above and a small sharpener and a bunch of gloves:



And a 4 month review of this shitty knife I picked up on Amazon gets 5 stars:

Woah. That's badass! What exactly is that? If you can knock out an elk so quickly with it, that tool would definitely make short work of a whitetail.

[MakersTeleMark]

It's a WY knife.

You clearly haven't processed an elk, much less in 30 minutes. I would pay money to watch someone process an entire animal with that contraption. /threaddrift take it to Fall Day's Afield

Haha. I dunno. Many do the gutless field dress. When you're in grizzly country, you gotta HAUL ASS and GTFO stat. Many a grizzly bear knows that when they hear that rifle shot, that's the dinner bell.
