    warming up cold pizza?

    I get two sheet pans full of pineapple rings ripping hot. Then I set the pizza on top of the slices in one pan. And then I take the hot slices from the second pan and lay them overtop the pizza. Works 100% of the time 100% of the time.

    Thoughts on design and craftsmanship

    Speaking as a home cook, I prefer a mix of completely utilitarian (basic J-knife with stock handle) and knives with fancy handles/ top-notch finishing. i am not firmly in one camp vs the other. Lots of beautiful handles over the years from the likes of Burke, Rader, HHH, etc. It's nice to...

    Damascus 240mm gyuto passaround

    Would be happy to have for the East Coast Gathering on July 14. That would let multiple KKFers get their hands on it. p.s., it's great to have HHH knives on the forum again -- we missed your dad and Jr.

    Matfer carbon steel pan recall scandal

    Manufacturer: "Okay, so I'll sell you this one for $1.98. ...but if you want the one that won't kill you, it will be $2.05!" 'Mer'can: "How dare you trod on my rights! I refuse to buy your $2.05 pan! In fact, I DEMAND you sell me THREE of your $1.98 pans! One for me and the missus, one...

    Nenox..really that bad?

    They were a good gateway j-knife in the US years ago, when Korin was one of the only knife shops. Many ITKers had them. Some people coveted the 'premium' fancy handles, too. The twice-per-year sale at Korin was a big event -- there would be many sold.

    Hello everyone!

    Welcome, Hunter! You have a great teacher. There are a quite a few of his knives floating around in KKF land. I've missed seeing him on the forums.

    Narrow Bob kramer

    Fun fact -- when the Zwelling line first came out, Zwelling worked out a 'tour' for Kramer to visit Sur La Table locations around the US. This was when the lottery for his customs was coming to an end, and quite a few KKFers had managed to score some of his knives. Kramer and his wife...

    Narrow Bob kramer

    Most people on KKF that have bought these chef knives have thought pretty highly of them. Rock chop vs push cuts are a personal thing, and decades ago rock chopping was the norm (Mr. Kramer is not a spring chicken). The profile he went with suited his cutting style, and the triangular shape/...

    Narrow Bob kramer

    Seriously? You cannot be further off the mark. He was a cook in his early years, and that led to him eventually designing a knife the way it was most useful to him. Your post is a huge insult to a person that spent many years in low paying jobs, and who eventually learned to sharpen -- and...
