Been Called "Flash" Since I Was A Kid!
I've bought, sold and collected knives all of my life. My interest has also extended to cooking/kitchen knives. It gripes me no end to use a kitchen knife that is dull and has a cheap, crappy handle with steel or stainless so soft it's like sharpening a butter knife. I had some real nice French knives once but they are long gone.
Recently, I came upon a new option in kitchen knives.....The ceramic blade!
My favorite store Harbor Freight is carrying three sizes of ceramic bladed knives so I bought one of each size. The term: "like a hot knife through butter" applies here. The knives cut like razors and the cost is about $9-15 dollars each.
There are some negatives. Ceramic knives will chip if used for prying and if dropped, could break. That means I'm keeping them for my own use and I'll need to hide them from Bonnie if I want to keep them intact.
I wonder though, if you guys had a source for GOOD knives that a normal person could still afford. I'm looking for good quality handles and steel or stainless that is hard enough to hold an edge. Cost must be less than insane.
I posted here because these knives are for cooking, not for defense.
