Hello folks! I chose my title for this post because, yes, I own budget-friendly knives! I have looked at Messermeisters, Wustoff, Sabatiers, and all those Asian tongue twister names, including the ones from that Iron Chef guy. Then I opened my coinpurse/cardwallet, and watch the moths fly. I...

I wish you luck!

I bought these knives, when starting all over after Hurricane Katrina, in a new town. I paid 20 bucks for the same set, locally. The rock n chop became my pizza slice server, and the rest, well were meted out to anyone who needed a knife for their kitchen. From the rock n chop, i did move to a...

Guy hiding behind shield laughing ....... second guy looks at him like he is wierd, and asks why is he laughing..... Guy beind shield says, "Because i told him we would fight in the shade, after the Persian threatened me with their arro3ws blotting out the Sun!" --or-- Oh, to suffer the slings...

Dear Mumu, I agree with 'the set' being a wrong tuen. Been there, done that, got cheated. For the same price, you can get 'a' knife, with more quality, than you would get ofr 'a set' at a comparable price. I agree with 'a knife', either 6-, 7-, or it is not being too large in your eyes, an...

re: Victorinox Fibrox 8 inch chef knife Hi folks! I don't own a victorinox, and yes, I have seen the YouTube ATK reviews, where even against 'hybrid knives', they chose the Vic. I have purchased an 8 inch chef knife and a 7 inch santoku knife from this fellow: Columbia Cutlery - Chef &...

Lodge makes "grill pan scrubber pieces", made to run down the grooves.

YUP!!! Ya's done dood it! I am familair with this design. It is sold as a "Tasylor and Ng" pan, and advertised as 'nonstick'. Ya's boined dah oil for 5 minutes?!?!? Stir fry don' take 5 minutes, if done right! Refer you to book "A Breath of A Wok", and Grace Young youTube videos. She is the...

Wok cleaning and cast iron cleaning are pretty close. Cast iron cooking bakes IN the nonstick, whereas manufactured nonstick bakes OUT. There is a belief that the wok, with all that has been cooked in it, imparts life to the pan. I refer you to "Breath of A Wok", or Grace Young YouTube videos...

Tramontina 12-inch tri-ply skillet is recommended by ATK, bought by me, and yes, it does! I forgot if the lid comes with it, but if not, then the NordicWare 12-inch that I bought, does work. I bought the Tram 10-inch tri-ply pan, and the Nordic lid for it, too. The Nordic lid also fits my...

I have two knives from Columbia Cutlery, an 8-inch chef knife and a 7 1/2-inch santoku knife. I have that little Chicago Cutlery package of 4 smaller knives, i.e., paring, utility, sandwich, and a tomato knife. I don't use the tomato knife, but the other three are just great! The utility knife...

I got a "Victorinox build" knife, in both a chef and a santoku design by Columbia Cutlery. I bought them each for $14.00. They hold an edge, take to a steel pretty well, and .... the place I bought them from, will receive them once a year, to put a professional edge on them, for almost nothing...
