My daily driver
Love this knife, but you have to invest the time to figure out how to use it. Its not a normal knife, and that is why its great. You can basically used a modified pinch grip on the handle close to the blade end and control it enough to fine dice, you can also move your hand to the far end and swing it to cleave light bones (ie when breaking down lambs). I also prefer sharpening it to stainless. You will not get something better for the price.
care of carbon steel knives.
these knives are not for everyone.,they requoir some care from the owner. #1,when you first get the knife,you must "season" the steel with mustard......yes, I said MUSTARD! smear it with mustard,let it sit for two hours,then wash it off with soap and water,dry right away.#2,never,ever put these knives in the dishwasher or leave the them in water.the wood will start to sperrate from the metal.
FANTASTIC KNIFE, LEARN HOW TO TREAT IT
KNIFE IS MUCH MORE THAN ADVERTISED. THIS IS A WORKING KNIFE MEANT TO BE USED AND PROPERLY CARED FOR. IT CAME RAZOR SHAPE AND WILL BE EASY TO MAINTAIN THE EDGE. BUYERS SHOULD KNOW THAT CARE OF CARBON STEEL BLADES IS MANDATORY. A PLEASURE TO USE. I'M CERTAIN THIS KNIFE WILL BE PASSED ON TO FAMILY MEMBERS (WHEN THE TIME COMES).
excellent product AND good steel
Fit and finish, and most importantly, the blade grind are excellent. This is a high carbon steel knife - therefore it must be washed and dried by hand (never in the dishwasher !) immediately after use. A thin film of vegetable oil or food-grade mineral oil may be applied to the blade if you won't be using it again soon. Upon receipt of the knife I lightly sanded the wood handles and treated with boiled linseed oil, letting it cure for a week before use. The blade's edge was ground evenly at the factory, and arrived sharp. Knives made of this excellent steel are easier to sharpen than stainless steel ones, and are well worth the little extra care needed. I find this 12 inch blade great for spatchcocking (removing the backbone), of chickens and turkeys before grilling. Finally, compare the price of this knife to what bbqpitboys charge for an old hickory knife. My grandkids will be using this knife decades from now !
Nope! Rusted the next morning
