The tanto pictured on the far right of the picture... Any info to share? Very nice
It's a Cold Steel made in Japan using cold forged SanMai steel. 14 inch full tang blade and sharp as a mother fucker. I got it a few years ago at a Raleigh gun & knife show. I saw it and just had to have it.

Dude, my ex and I had just started dating when that movie was released. She made me watch the entire series in two days before going to watch that poor excuse for a vampire movie finale.
-I was so glad the guns were locked up.

I carry an old timer folder with a drop point and sheep's foot blade since I was a kid. Same one actually. It's razor sharp and has been used more times than I can remember. My Grandpa gave it to me on my 7th Birthday.

I'm a victorinox and wusthof guy. Also have some no name German steel that was handed down to me from one of my butchers that claims it's origin and I trust him. Probably the best blade I've ever used. Hard to sharpen but keeps for longer even without using a steel.
I get my knives and saw blades from kasko. Been butchering with their stuff for years.

Those German blades are awesome! Being a wisthoff and henkels I am biased; but, they seem to forge some excellent steel.

I agree. German steel is probably the best. Best I've used anyway. Hard for me to get also. In Colombia it doesn't come around too easy, in Miami everyone seems to sell Swiss. Maybe if I went to some kind of knife show.

Here's my 2 main kitchen knives, Shun and Wusthoff:

All my kitchen knives are Wusthof. My Dad bought them as a wedding gift for me and the missus. Hard steel that keeps an edge once honed correctly. About 15 years ago I bought a 12" fillet knife at a second hand store that looked like it was Damascus steel. Turns out it is Damascus steel, made in Soligen Germany in 1850. Had a hell of a time tracing it. It keeps an edge like no other fillet knife I've ever owned. Paid $0.75 for it. Look hard enough and you find gems like this every now and then.

Wustoff used to be a knifemaker for JA Henkels and they had a falling out so he went off on his own. Just a bit of trivia there. That and for whatever reason they appear to hold an edge just a bit better than the others.
Overall with all of the kitchen knives, for me its the handel and the way they are weighted at the tang that makes me decide which one to grab. Still the 'go to' has been Henkels; they were the first I bought when I started in the kitchen.

I'll always have a Japanese blade in my kitchen, I love how thin the blades are and they do the trick for herbs and what not. I'm a professional chef so I need different blades for different things. Plus it does wonders when breaking a salmon down.

I was a chef for a good while, I'm in New Orleans and have been successful at avoiding salmon like the plague. Hahaha(not my thing, I can't get past the smell) - now, get me some gulf seafood and I'm a happy guy.
Weird though I love salmon raw.
Salmons big up here in the Northeast, people can't seem to get enough of it. I absolutely hate it and won't eat it at all.

Them RAT folders are great beatersMy m16 and something I grabbed at a gun show last year.
As a former chef in the kitchen wustoff, Henckels (5star and their professional lines) and Shun have given me the most reliability.

That's the story that was told to me by my old head chef. I love Wustoff's and Henkels, but have discovered that the Henkels are susceptible to shattering if hit on the side. Idiot sauciere used mine to smack a garlic clove to break the skin, damn thing just exploded. Damn things stay sharp forever though
My old boss was manager at Brennans out by you.
As to my EDC...just a plain, fast, cheap Kershaw Blur. Easy as hell to snap open one handed and cheap enough that if I break it at work it's no issue. Been in my pocket for years though, has held up amazingly well. There's also a guy on my mail route that makes custom titainium blades but waaaaay to expensive for my blood!
Out of nothing more than curiosity I bought a ceramic knife on eBay. 7" blade. First one got here all busted up. There a joy on soft things & extremely sharp. Use it more than I thought I would. I inherited a Ronco 25 piece knife set new in box. Don't know what they cost, but are some damn nice knives.
Ah Spydercos are amazing! I own a Ambitious, my second-most used knife. Awesome little blade! It's mainly carried and used when I'm at a possible knife-a-phobic area (such as the hospitals I work at), since it's not threatening looking, and is only a 2.25" blade.my everyday carry

This thread has taught me two things...
First - I need a new pocketknife. Stopped carrying my old Buck when it finally broke down for the last time a few years ago. I know I could mail it off to get cleaned up, but I liked it when they were in my backyard and I could drop it off, shoot the shit for a few, then come back a week later to a honed blade, new spring, and a nice cleaning. For whatever reason I just won't drop it in the mail for the same thing now that they've moved the operation to Bumfuck, Idaho.
Second - my weak-ass Calphalon and Cutco kitchen sets are shit. I liked them a lot better before I started following this conversation...
