And I have Vinzer. Like these ones. Comfortable. Berghoff has a similar series, but there is no bump stop near the handle. ... True, there is no bread knife in this series. But as for me, it must be selected separately. For cheese, I have a separate knife - a special one with holes.

Kitchen knives, meat hatchets
musyanya
kolynusha, thanks for the warning! We only bought a chopping chef 20cm ("ideal"), a knife for sushi and herbs 11cm ("Asia"), a universal knife 15cm ("Asia"). I went with my husband to choose, he will sharpen them. I have already used them all, they seemed to me more comfortable than "simple mongrels". I especially liked the sushi knife, there is something to compare with, the pieces of sushi do not stick to the knife and it is not necessary to wash the knife after each piece, as I did before. If they break, I will also throw it out and buy new ones, since the price is not high (although, as I say, "low", I saw sets of knives without a name 6 pieces in a wooden stand-340 rubles ...).

I looked after a set of Berner's forged (with a wooden handle), but the cheapness stops me a little. Does anyone use these?

Burner, who makes the famous graters?
If yes, then they have a website, there are all products with prices, look so that you do not get fake.

I don’t use it, but I also collect information. I would like to believe that their knives are of the same quality as the graters. Let's wait for an answer from those who already have a happy (hopefully) experience with these knives.

In the test purchase I got on the program about knives .. there Berner's knife took part. (I, too, wanted to buy these knives) But he did not take the first place .. Amefa knife won there. After that, I already wondered whether it was worth buying them.
This is true. food for thought ..
mish
kinski, but do not remember what motivated there that the knife did not take first place? Well, what flaws did you find? Maybe it was deposited in the memory? It's a pity that I didn't see that program ...
kinski
Unfortunately I can't remember ... I didn't watch the whole program ...

So I have the long-awaited Japanese YAXELL Damascus steel: for steaks, chef, sandwich and for cleaning. Mastering
Are you sure that this is Damascus, Damascus is very sharp, but at the same time flexible, it looks more like Damascus in design. But the quality of both steels is approximately the same. Why am I asking if I have a Syrian special forces collectible knife from Damascus. It is razor-sharp, but extremely flexible, it cuts everything like butter, but it is impossible to prick with it.
Alexandra
I'm not sure of anything, in our country you can write and sell anything even in the coolest official store. But on all sites about these knives it is written
exactly :

and was bought in the branded department of a large chain store
torturesru
And it is flexible or like a stone. In principle, hardness is not needed for a kitchen knife, and the only difference between Damascus and Damascus is that one of them is cold forged, the other is hot. But I liked the knife, I'll take one for myself, it looks painfully beautiful and cannot be compared in price with those offered on the "blade" :)
kolynusha
100matolog, mish I wrote about Berner's knives in answer # 52. I have knives of the "Ideal" series, a set of 6 items in a fan stand. For knives with a wooden handle, the blades are the same (such knives from my friend), but the price is higher.
100matolog
Thanks for the answer, but it was the Vienna knives that interested me.They not only differ from all with a wooden handle, but also in that they are made of forged steel, the rest are made of rolled steel. Maybe someone uses these?
Kitten

And who can tell by Thomas knives? We have a special offer at METRO now, you collect stamps for purchases, and you can buy a knife at half price, which is about UAH 100. average.

And the second question: what kind of Asian knife is this?

wales
It is Winzer who has such a "Japanese" series - with notches against sticking. On the handle there is a non-slip shell.
Kitten
I ask because Thomas also has such a series. Notches to prevent sticking? This knife is for slicing what?
wales
This is a simple 5 "kitchen knife.
There is also a chef's knife 8 ", a meat knife 8", a universal knife 5 ", a vegetable knife 3.5", a potato knife 3.5 ", a Hatchet.

Kitten,
Kitten
wales Thank you! I plan to take one from Thomas (at discounts), and I still don't understand why they call it "Asian" Well, okay, we'll buy it - we'll check
wales
"Asian" - it's modestly they called the traditional form of the Japanese knife))) Now, probably, all companies have such knives. Fashionable and convenient But the anti-stick notches are a really good thing. They are different in shape and quantity. And in cheese knives - generally holes)))
Kitten
wales aha! The cheese knife is super handy! I have from Teskom (well, I have knives in disarray), it is very convenient, and a fork at the end. But there are knives for grilled meat (or what are they called?). I have such a set (6 pcs.), With wooden handles, cuts grilled meat, chops and the like with a bang!
wales
Kitten, And I, too, in a discord! )) But I use everyone

I will change to Japanese. We also do not have good knives, I will buy them through the online store.
On Moskovskaya-Chapaev in the Moscow shopping center (former electronics) there are Japanese knives, and prices are lower than in online stores for the same models.

Lissa!
Well, yes ... they are not so easy from the earth ...

Oh, I forgot why I wrote. Do not take hatchets in the Seven Hills !!! Well, if they didn't go to the forest for mushrooms!
Mueslik
I have a similar hatchet, the blade is good, high quality ...
my husband sometimes uses it, but I don’t, I didn’t adapt
well, I don’t get into one place more than once, but I don’t cut through at a time,
I end up with a bunch of pieces and a mess
So it lies to itself alone
Hairpin
Cube!
It has a length of about 25 cm. I had to put ten next to me. If it is a mushroom hatchet, then it should be sold in the Chernobyl regions. Only there are mushrooms of the appropriate size.

Hairpin, if the question is for me, then I know nothing about this holding. I think if you make a joke on the internet, you can decide on this matter.
Seven Hills is a chain that specializes in Hotter grills and Berner graters, to say the least. Therefore, I boldly grabbed this hatchet there. That is, these shops are not on the principle Cheap and Angry.

Hairpin, these are generally my rantings about the yellow-faced brothers and their products "Druzhba" (which, by the way, once at the dawn of my sad youth, was of excellent quality). Regardless of specific network markets. I personally bought a hatchet, and a Burner grater, and many other kitchen utensils 15 years ago. Everything serves well and until now (there were fewer fakes). And now in boutiques you can run into Cherkizon ... at an unbeatable price !!!
This hatchet has served me faithfully for many years (it chops bones - only on the way!):

Hairpin
Yes, I just emphasized the fact that I try to buy everything that cuts (knives, graters, hatchets) in more or less decent stores. I would not take the same taporik on the market. In addition, on our forum, many visit the Seven Hills, and, I hope, they will not have such problems with the hatchet. As, however, and the hatchet itself.
And fakes, of course, are now the sea, if not the ocean.

Spanish firm knives ARCOS with molybdenum and vanadium - rule

Recommend !

I have 3 knives myself, I'm not overjoyed - besides the quality, they are also the most comfortable in the hand in my whole life

Tanyusha
I also bought myself a knife from ARCOS with molybdenum and vanadium, so now I only use this knife at home. But I still want to buy Japanese from Damascus steel.

tanya1962 , similarly

I have one Arkos chef's knife, with which I crush everything, everything, everything, including bread
And two identical small knives, for small things, peel an orange there, cut off someone's ass, pick out a little eye ...

The rest of the knives were out of work

And what is the name of the company that makes these knives from Damascus steel?

julifera, I also bought a cook's one, and Alexandra has such knives from Damascus steel, look in this thread: Show off with kitchen knives https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/in...=4550.0

Girls, no one has KAI or HATTORI knives? And where can I buy them in Movkva (I saw HATTORI at the official representative of Kasumi, but they raised the price for them ...)
Sly
And you will get them at a special exhibition.
Hunting and slavery in Russia (VVTs twice a year), Arsenal (annually), Blade (annually) ...

There, these and many other knives can be bought significantly cheaper. And most importantly - you can choose exactly for yourself, hold it in your hand, choose from a variety ...
In general, if there is a desire and time, take a look at us, knife lovers and knife lovers for a light:
there you will find a lot of interesting things, including the choice of kitchen makers (if you rummage around). Or you can leave a request, for sure there will be a seller.

PS: Answering the topeaster's original question:

- here he is, the ideal of the Japanese kitchen cooker!
Unfortunately, it is whimsical in everyday life and the toad chokes to use it :)

Bought Berner knives a week ago. We took a set of a series "Vienna". The birthmarks are hanging on the wall, which I find very convenient. There are no claims about the quality, although as they say, "except for carrots, they ate nothing sweet." Before that I wanted to buy ceramic ones, but the price was scared off. I'm not ready to spread 1000 rubles. by the knife.
Sly
Yes, to be honest, for everyday life, they are not needed, super-hard, super-strong (super-fragile, by the way, too), etc.
It is more important that it is sharpened constantly, and from mild steel it is more convenient to grind, although it will constantly have to be done ...
Kosharik
Slay, but give me a link where to look at the light.
I bought KAI while I'm happy.
Sly
oh, strange ... I gave it like. And now I looked - no really.
I repeat:
Hairpin
Fifteen years ago, in parallel with Berner, I bought Richardson knives on the fourth floor of the Moscow Central Department Store. I don’t remember how much they cost, I remember that in my poor student days I collected money for almost a pretty penny. And now I turned to them ... Half - tip-top, but the second half ... alas and ah. Now I am sitting like a Jew at a crossroads - I don’t want to completely change the set (maybe the knives are not very good, but ... the memories compensate for this, and I was happy with them). And to change half ... the handles are different.
I tried to search the Internet - I could not find it. Maybe someone has heard about them? If there are definitely no such ones now, I will search by the identity of the pens ... if possible ...
djania
I have been using Berghof knives for six years now. I'm very happy, I'm not going to change the knives.
Lor7ik
I've also been using Berghof knives for five years, my husband bought it. I don't really like it. I look at the Japanese.
iolanta
And my favorites are ceramic. I spent only two and have been using them for a year now. The only thing is that it is not very convenient for cheese, but for it I use a knife from the titanium 2 set. Once upon a time, they were sold for a long time in a TV shop. All the other knives from this set did not really take root.
Hairpin
I seem to have read everything, but ... I don't like smooth knives. Probably, they stabbed me like that in that life ... I like it with sharpening. Well, when they are such sharp mounds ... I never found Richardson ...
Which way should I look now? I’m unlikely to take a full set of a thousand, but I’ll dial one at a time and a thousand and ... and ... and ... a thousand!
Tanyusha
And I bought myself such knives at a sale and they do not go around the knives that I bought for 3000 rubles per leg
Kitchen knives, meat hatchets
Tanyusha
The hairpin at that moment was very upset, and when I was upset I wanted to buy something, so the toad did not strangle me, and my husband chose the knives himself.
Kosharik
And I, too, went broke on a KAI knife for as much as 6 thousand (I still found a good place). Damascus. Very much in one place. What can I say: a little disappointed. They also need to be constantly reigned in stone. After cutting 15, he no longer became so sharp. And these knives are very capricious: wipe them right away, do not cut frozen ones, etc., etc. So I use the Berghoff, at a price of 4000 per set. They keep the sharpening unimportant, but if I have a husband and a mussat, I use them to the fullest: I cut bones, and I wash them in the dishwasher ...

Sly, I've been to the Blade this year. I was very impressed! Especially with a food tasting show
What about knives will be in the near future?
By the way, I use Opinel knives for my camping life. Inexpensive and pleasant. And boiling pens is a separate pleasure
magenta
I want to ask about knife sharpening. Who uses what? If possible, with a photo. What are "closer" and "knife edgers"?
