What kitchen knives do you use?

I have to say for the money the Miracle Blade makes a good set of knives.They go thru fingers like butter and the doctor says the cut was "like a brand new razor".

GL on your search hope this helps.Clint

I worked as a Chef for years, So I've tried a tone of different knives.
In my kitchen at home you'll find Henckels and ChefMate's (I prefer my ChefMates)
Those are Gorgeous knives, But I don't think I could justify them in a work kitchen let alone my home one.

My preferred knife is my little ceramic blade knife made by Kyocera.

I have cutco as well, in fact I used to sell it

Why did you stop selling Cutco? I've used them before. I wasn't too awfully impressed. They're stamped, not forged

Anyway, I guess it was inevitable, but I've finally sliced off the tip of my thumb with one of the knives (dumb mistake, I know, I WATCH FOOD NETWORK TOO).

The knife

The result

Half an hour and two bandages later

EL OH EL! FRICKING SWEET EH?

Edit: Actually, about Cutco, the Double-D blades were pretty nift, but the straight edge knives left a lot to be desired for knives of that price range.

I stopped selling it because I was maybe 19 and didn't like the pressure. I'm not much of a salesman and I sympathize too much so, I had a hard time asking for people for 800$ for some knives. Even though I love them and wouldn't buy another brand, in fact that is all I have in my house for knives. I was actualy at their factory where they make them, pretty impressive.

The funny thing is I sell the idea of them to people more now than I ever did when I was actualy selling them.

A few people I joined up with are still in the business, its good money if your a good sales person.
