Girls who are interested in Japanese knives. Sending to your apartment by courier will be only $ 7 !!! And the prices there are just a fairy tale. Everyone who knows will take it there. You just need to have a card (any cash - the PayPal system automatically converts the currency into the one you need for the purchase). Delivery about a week. There on the site everything is written how to order, just in English (who does not understand at all, translate it in the Google translator). It is even cheaper to order on Ebay - there are very favorable prices. I have wusthof knives from ebay. And microplane graters are also from America (super-awesome !!!) For anyone interested, ask, I will try to help ...
Oh, I forgot - I took the ceramic knives Tima from Yuli-Tillotama (more details here - ( 🔗) -cutting is a pleasure, and the price is not like Japanese, for prices and delivery, find out from Julia herself, she sends it by mail.

You can read about knives from BERNER, but I do not advise buying. For many years, using Berner's vegetable cutters, I was imbued with confidence in this company. Once I saw BÖRNER knives at an exhibition. I bought the entire line and was very disappointed. Now they are lying around idle, and I use others. Maybe someone has different impressions, but I have like this.

And how do Japanese ceramic knives sharpen? Can you yourself on the bar or should you take it somewhere? Or maybe a disposable knife?

and I've started to assemble a set of Apollo knives. cost about 600 rubles a piece (depends on the size). I already have 3 of them, although a vegetable knife from another series (seen by the design), but I urgently needed it (the previous one broke down), and in the selected series it was not available at that time
so far, the knives do not cause any complaints. Moderately heavy, comfortable for the hand, non-slip, sharp, handle and blade are a single whole, and most importantly do not break! (previous knives fell the death of the brave.the husband still wonders how such a fragile girl like me manages to break knives at such a speed - either the handle will break off, then it will fly into its component parts, then the blade in half, at best the tip fell off)

and the companies that the girls wrote about here, I didn’t even see ... but ordering via the Internet .. this is a kapets .. knife 3000 rubles and delivery is almost the same, not so much I am obsessed with cooking to spend such crazy money on a knife, about which either I or others will constantly cut myself .. although to each his own .. if there is an opportunity to afford it, then why not treat yourself to your beloved

Good day. I chose kitchen knives for my wife as a birthday present. Found useful info on the site 🔗 I bought it, I'm happy as an elephant). Maybe for some of you that infa will be useful.

I don't know if there was already such a knife here or not ??? Today I bought a plastic knife in Auchan for cutting vegetables (cabbage, lettuce, cucumbers, etc.) - it does not oxidize. It cuts perfectly, even bread.

I have never seen such knives. And Hde snatched such a miracle? Is Shikoko worth it?
Is the manufacturer's name applied to the blade by "darkening"? And who is this manufacturer?
dopleta
Wildebeest, just arrived from the Metro. They are cheap and come in different sizes. It says Nirosta on the blade, and Nirosta by Fackelmann on the packaging.

Thanks, sunshine ! I hope that I will not be disappointed either ...

P.S.I have been looking at ceramic knives for a long time, but I could not decide what I want in the end, my husband helped to sort out the situation, took it and bought / presented it. To my question on what principle he chose and how he could know (when I myself do not know) that I need this particular set, he did not answer anything intelligible. Just for some reason I decided that this is exactly what I need ...

I'm not at all about signs, but about the fact that some women are offended, that they are given
kitchen appliances, utensils, etc. The day before yesterday a young man wrote somewhere that he gave his wife a multicooker, a toaster, and a vacuum cleaner for the holiday. But my wife did not appreciate it!

I personally did not take offense at the frying pan. Although, to be honest, this is not a gift from her husband.

And everyone knows that in order to please me, you need to give something original and useful for the kitchen. I would be very grateful for an excellent frying pan. And for knives you just need to give a couple of denyuzhek and then nothing will threaten you

How threatening! They need to be handled very carefully! You see a crack on the black - I cried higher, they just cut an eel and clicked on a hard ridge. And you can't wash them in the dishwasher. And they cut - class!

I really like ceramic knives, but it will be ruinous to buy for my family, because everything always falls for everyone, and they are very fragile, so my husband buys these from me, gradually, at once very expensive.

I was lucky in this regard, except for me in the family no one takes knives (yeah, expression "he won't even cut his bread"- this is about mine (about my husband and daughter), my mother has her favorite knife, in my opinion it is "dumber than the dumbest", but she can handle it perfectly. I myself was not noticed in the drop (well, or whatever it would be right), well, once a year does not count ...
But even if something happens that I drop and break the knife, I’m unlikely to get upset, well ... maybe just a little ... I have two more knives left!

Tanyusha, I can't make out what kind of knife is in the picture? Of what? Is it worth it?

No, in my opinion, they are not dull. I, in any case, for five years (even a little more) did not notice. On very close examination, the oldest knife can show microscopic chips, but even these do not affect the sharpness of the cut. In general, I read somewhere that they can also be edited, but there was no need.

Girls, tell me, if you want a ceramic knife, be sure to look only at the most expensive or average Japanese ones? For 200-250 UAH - is that not quite right? Because here I started to want a ceramic knife, but I won’t give 100 uyov for a knife, fin. the possibilities are not the same.

I have only one German, bought a few years ago in Seven Hills, the inscription on it has already been erased, so I don’t remember the company, but a very sharp and comfortable knife. And my daughter has black ceramic German ones, for some reason they were sold in the weapons store (kitchen), also excellent knives.

I have had a German ceramic knife for over a year Welen.
Kitchen knives, meat hatchets

From the instructions:
"Ceramic knives are ideal for slicing soft, juicy foods (ripe tomatoes, fruits, meat, fish)."
"Solid foods such as courgette or raw potatoes should be sliced ​​with a sliding motion.
It is not recommended to cut frozen food with a ceramic knife. "

My impressions are exactly as in the instructions. That is, it cuts tomatoes perfectly, cucumbers are already worse. In short, I played around while the new one was, and now it is in the box. Not blunt, no chipping either, that is, there are no complaints about the quality. But it's not mine. I love knives with a thin blade, but ceramic cannot be thin. But this is just my personal preference. When I bought, I wanted to grab a whole set at once. It's good that the seller dissuaded the girl. I bought one for trial, I still remember the girl with kind words. It cost about a thousand. Girls, think carefully about which knives are convenient for you, because we are all different.
lina
dopleta, thanks for the answer!

Girls, my ceramic knife is a little over six months old (they bought it in the summer). sooooo like it! I cut fruits and vegetables, cold cuts, raw meat, salted and raw fish (fillets). I bought my mom a Teskomovsky (about 2000 tr.) - also very good.

lega, I deliberately went, checked all my knives in profile, both metal and ceramic. So only the German ceramic knife has a thick blade, the Japanese one is as thin as the metal one.
