Product Description
Holding an Edge of Belgravia knife is an experience that can only be described as futuristic. From their featherweight build to their angular shape, these knives have clearly been created with user experience in mind Read More
Intial impressions of the knives, they are sharp. I also did the paper cutting test and they all pass.
I also ordered the block and it is better constructed then I originally thought, which is always a plus. But they did a poor job on the TPR coating in some areas. Nothing was chipped or broken which is awesome.
The only thing to look forward in the future is, if these knives will stay sharp for a long period of time. Based on Initial impressions I hope they do. Will give more feedback in the next couple of weeks!
ChuckLoadsI ordered both actually hahaha. I'm moving houses right now so my family took that box and put it in the new house, unopened. So when I get a chance to open the knife set and everything, I'll post my initial impressions here; of the knife set and block. I'll most likely do a review later down the line as well, like after a couple months of use.
When you get a chance to use them, I would love to know how they perform!
Does anyone know if this knife set is worth the money? Can't really find anything online about them, particularly the ceramic knife set. I joined the drop so hopefully the knifes are good...
SegaGen3sisIf anything it was her faith that helped me get better. It was the fact that she didn't give up when the doctors were far from optimistic. The knife showed that she was willing to spend a significant amount of money to make sure I got the message.
I don't disagree with your kyocera experience, depending what she was actually cutting into, eg bone, hard surfaces, etc, that actually does dull & potentially 'destroy' the knife, not to mention depending which kyocera sharpener she used has been known to potentially 'wreck' a ceramic blade.
I did mention this in my answer to musgrat.
I would be interested to know more info.
Just curious, what did you use to sharpen your mom's steel knives?
In your own steel knife maintenance, do you ever use a strop?
It's part of my own routine so I'm just curious how many others actually use one as well as I rarely sharpen my knives anymore as a result.
PaganDShe doesn't cut anything like bone, but has this habit of cutting and then pushing the food over by dragging the edge across the cutting board. On a plastic cutting board and with a sharp knife you can hear this quiet snapping noise when the blade is tipped a little, which is probably a bad sign. She also doesn't have the best technique. Whenever I sharpen her knifes I always notice a lot of chipping in the blades (this was the problem with the kyoceras as well).
As for sharpening, I favor edge leading strokes. I used to use edge trailing to finish, but had trouble with wire edges. When I sharpen for others, I usually put the bevel on at 15dps and then microbevel at 20dps. To get the microbevel with edge-leading strokes, I pretty much have to use ceramic stones. My preference is for spyderco bench stones and a very light touch. That said, your practice doesn't seem that uncommon, based on what people say they do on forums.
I've never been attracted to a knife set until now.
This looks like some BladeRunner alleyway push-cart meat vendors knifeset who's actually a replicant and will kill you using the knife he just finished chopping your meat wrap in half with.
So yeah, dope AF.
