I can see all the closet posters coming out on this thread...
I collect Knives but more as a collectable hobby.
I have spent most of my life as a Bushman & a Hunter, so i have an appreciaction of quality & craftsmanship when it comes to steel utilities.
Wait!.... I might like these Bark River Knife: Kitchen Knives - KnivesShipFree.com
I have a complete set of Gerber Legendary Kitchen knives ... but at 3 to 5 dollars (each) for sharpening, it gets expensive.
I don't have a knife fetish, but I was a cook/chef for 25 years and I do have an appreciation of a fine knife. My pet peeve was going to work in a new place and not being able to find a decent knife with any kind of edge on it. A dull knife is a very dangerous tool. I finally bought myself a set of quality knifes and used them when I worked. I can pick up any one of them and shave.
These are some awesome knives... have 4 of them.
KAI USA : Shun Search Results
Those are the ones I have that entire set in Black G10 handles with brass pins. (limited edtion) I also use Shun and Wustoff.
One thing that has imporved all of them is going to a thin highly polished convex edge.
I also keep to Busse INFI steel knives I have modified to be useful in the kitchen.
This vendor you found for the bark River knives is very honest and I recomend them highly.
