Chef Knives
    #7377842 -

I've been looking to get a really good quality chef's knife, but I'm not really sure where to find a high quality one. I'd say an 8" knife is what I'm looking for and could probably spend $60 or so.

So anyway, what kind of chef's knives do you guys use? Also, can you recommend a good company? I've looked into Global and some German companies so far.

Hmm, $80 for an 8" Global Chef's Knife on Amazon :ooo:

That's a possibility, but then again there are all these other sexy looking knives there, too.

Is there a kitchen store that you can go to to try these different knives out? :tongue: That would help alot.

I've been using a Henckels Professional S set of knives for about four years now.
Never let me down, and maintain their edge quite well with some regular honing.





Go to your local department store, I'm sure the sales associates would be happy to let you feel and hold their
various brands of knives. Most high quality knives will offer similar slicing capabilities, so you should place a good lot of
emphasis on how comfortable the knife is in your steely grip rather than the look of it, but hell who am I kidding -
sex appeal is always desireable.. even in pieces of steel!

Japanese-knife.com

The best selection of japanese steel on the net. I personally prefer Japanese steel over German because they are well made, thinner blades make them extremely sharp. They also carry alot of blades in your price range that are far superior to any Henckels or Wusthof.

Look under Misono or Kiya for nice knives in your price range
