I know it might be stretching a bit to call kitchen knives ‘Artist’s Tools’. But, I consider cooking an art, and I use some of these knives in the shop also.
I’ve spent years, and too much money, trying to find just the right kitchen knives. And, now I have. When I first came across them, I thought ‘how good can they be for this price.’ None of these knives costs more than $10! But, then I thought about all those cooks there slicing and dicing their veggies, etc. and I bought a couple. I’ve bought just about all they sell, including three of the one in the first photo. I guarantee them!
