KNIFE BARGAIN

A Henckels - Four Star Contemporary 7pce Knife Block Set reduced from AU$749.00 to $329.00. I prefer Wusthoff but Henkels is very highly regarded -- in my experience Henckels knives are less corrosion resistant. Then there is minimalist Global.

An expensive knife, poorly maintained is worse than a cheap knife well maintained.

Do yourselves a favour and learn how to sharpen knives properly.

I picked up a Spyderco Sharpmaker in the states a few years ago, and it's terrific for getting that scary-sharp edge that makes steak tremble on my plate.

There are a lot of really crappy knife-sharpening systems being sold, mainly to people who haven't got a clue what's involved. It's not difficult and it makes your knives safer, as well as sharper.

Get a knife set that suits your hand. Everyone has a different grip, and so do knives. I love the look of Global, but can't chop with them for any period of time - I just can't get a proper grip in the handle.
