Knives

I like that rosewood handle!

Are you guys liking the 12" or the 14" granton edge for briskets?

[Pork Belly]

Go with your budget, but more length equals smother slicing.

[Libohunden]

Is this the 14" version?

They were ordered on the 14th and got them on the 19th.  This is the site I got them from:

I would like to thank the previous posters for the info they laid out here.  I went to the webstaurant site and ordered the same 3 victorinox knives as well as the stiff 6" boner w/guards.  I have been doing a lot of reviewing and pricing for vaccuum sealers also.  I had been on the verge of ordering the Food Saver 4880 through eBay with some trepidation because of conflicting reviews. There were some posters here that were recommending the vacmaster 260.  I found it had other decent reviews, and after googling the company I found a listing at webstaurant.  I found the 260 was on sale for $157, free shipping, and no tax.  And from a reputable company.  Can't beat that deal so I pulled the pin.  I never would have found this company without the input from this forum.  Thanks guys.

Cant go wrong with Cutco.  Check on ebay.   Lots listed near Christmas time and you can always send them back for lifetime sharpening.   John

I hope you're just kidding around haha. Based on the quality of their knives and their business model I think there are many better deals to be had on knives.

Whats wrong with Cutco? 

I will say I'd never buy one new from their catalog.  But find a broken tip knife on ebay, send it back to them and you'll get a return new knife. 

Thats a trade secret.  haha.   

Shop prudent and you can get $20 cutco's on ebay.

Haha!  Sounds like my Dad!  When I was a kid, I saw him break the corner off more than one Craftsman screwdriver, in a vice, that was plum worn-out, just to take it back to Sears and get a new one!  Seems that "trade secret" has been around awhile!
