This sharpener was exactly what I wanted. It puts a great edge on my knives quickly. I would recommend this tool to anyone who uses there knives often.I have used this sharpening steel on several of my knives which had become quite dull from using them on a hard surface rather than a cutting board. Just a few...

Joseph Joseph Index Advance Chopping Board Set

The Joseph Joseph web site sells this item for only $39.99 with Free Shipping. The original price was only $64.99. So I was pretty shocked to see them being sold here for as high as $80.00. The product is good, but lets face it, we are talking about paying $40-$80 dollars for very simple and pretty small cutting...

Norpro KLEVE 3.5 Inch Paring Knife

I already had other Kleve knives so I got this as a matching knife, even though it's not that important for a paring knife to be full-tang, super-strong steel, double-bolsters, yada-yada-yada. It does well as a paring knife. I got it for about $10, so at that price point it's better than many. I wouldn't pay...

Knife, Serrated Utility 4-1/2"

Victorinox Swiss Classic 3-1/4-Inch Paring Knife with Spear Tip, Yellow Handle

Like all Victorinox knives, this guy is extremely sharp. This smaller paring knife is great for fine work, like coring quartered apples. Also, the blade is quite thin, which helps when trimming broccoli or peeling potatoes. Great knife.We always buy Victorinox knifes and we have never been disappointed with...

Opinel No 112 Colored Paring Knife Set

I have been a lover of Opinel knives for 30 years but I could not get them in the USA and could only get them in France where they are loved. I was shocked when I saw them in Amazon. They are not the old fashion one with the handle made of wood but they are great. Love them!!!Have not had these for long, but...

The Sharper Image Nonstick Essential Knife Set Paring & Utility Knife

the paring knife is great--the utility knife is not the sharpest knife in the drawer. The big one was dull!I have tried many different knives...These are by far the best.

Calphalon LX Series Cutlery 7" Santoku

I am a big fan of the Calphalon LX series as a whole. I started picking these up at a secondary store for much cheaper. I first acquired the 5 inch santoku and the paring knife, which is absolutely gorgeous, might I add. The five inch has what some consider a small handle. I can see what they are talking...

Kai Stainless Steel Paring Knife with Lock Botton

I used to be able to find this product from local Japanese store, but due to the economics, many stores close their door. Even some stores does carry this kind of knife, it would cost you a lot.

Simply Calphalon Santoku Knife

I use this knife all the time, it's very sharp and very high quality. It feels solid in your hand and sturdy. It was a replacement for another of the same knife that had rust on it.

F. Dick Knife Block Set - 9 Piece Forged Steel - German Made

F. Dick is not so popular in the United States because of its name. But the fact is, F. Dick knifes are used extensively in Germany by professionals in the butcher milieu; this brand of knifes is highly respected. However, I have found German professionals tend to use Dick's less expensive stamped knifes. They...

OXO Good Grips Bread Knife

I have a bread knife that was handed down to me via my great great Danish grandmother. It is my most prized and loved possession. Its sentimental value is worth all I have in life...... as a bread knife it kinda sucks. It has a hard time cutting stiff egg whites. No real loss as I have tons of other kitchen knife...

Rosle Oyster Knife 7-in.

This is an excellent knife for opening oysters. I loved it so much I bought another for my holiday home. The larger Rosle "oyster" knife is really best for clams. This knife is very strong with a point sharp enough to get directly into the hinge and pop it open quickly. The handle is also large enough for my...
