    Blade safe?

    I have some old crappy knives in one of those big bugly (ugly and bulky) wooden blocks. Starting to replace them with some better knives (not that they improve my cooking) and with the two new ones I have, the boning knife will go in one of the slots, however, the 8" chef's knife will not fit...

    Mezzaluna Knife vs Chef Knife

    Never even heard of a Mezzaluna Knife until I happened upon a commercial with Giada De Laurentiis hawking her knife brand at Target. The question is, is a Mezzaluna Knife a suitable substitute for a Chef Knife, a needed addition or what?

    US Navy knives?

    I was wondering if anyone knows who makes the knives the Navy uses? When I was still in the Navy, I handled some of them and found that they were pretty decent knives. They had a black plastic type handle and really kept an edge.

    Looking for new cookware

    Kind of a long story but because my wife moved to our house in Texas (to be with the kids and grandkids more than to be away from me), I told her to take everything she would need so as to save her some money. Told her I would make do with whatever was left and piece together whatever else I...
