Anyways thank you ! !! I’ll find some where else !
Instead of spending all that money just buy a chines cleaver?
Perhaps you should refrigerate that meat behind you…
Why do you not include a Zwilling? My personal knife, the Zwilling Profection, has a few features that none of your other knives (such a a tapered bolster and and exaggerated curve on the blade).
Where can I buy these knifes .?
Its the Nicolas Cage of knives : ) doing a knife “face off”.
You forgot about Tijiro. Especially the Tojiro DP series chefs knives which are an excellent value and use the same VG10 steel that Shun uses. I have the 210mm Tojiro Dp gyuto is fucking love it.
Great video. I have been getting into knives a lot more lately and I am moving to knives I can use in the kitchen. Is the Victorinox something you would highly recommend for a beginner who wants to improve knife skills.
We have a number of professional knives for a variety of purposes. But the one I use almost exclusively is a 12″ chef’s knife that I bought at a used book store for $1. It holds an edge as well as any of the others and just feels perfect in the hand.
Actually the Global knives are made from 2 pieces and then welded, the first batch that came out Japan had many of them break at the weld because there were made for Japanese Chefs and they use their knives differently then the Western Chefs , this was corrected for the next shipments and true the handle is filled with sand to balance it.
I love the Victorinox knives, they usually work way better than knives twice their price.
Just with the knives laying there the Kasumi looks to have a pleasing cutting profile.
Not a bad video, but the Masamoto is not 64 Rockwell. Some other knives mentioned, like the Global, Wusthof are also higher than actual.
where can I find the 5th knife?? “morytakka”???
Such such sound and sensible comments – thanks.
Actually the handle of the Global knife is filled with sand to prevent it from being too heavy which it would be if it were made from a solid piece of metal throughout.
Interesting review but Globals are not made out of one piece of metal – the handle is welded to the blade – I know because mine broke there 🙁
great video!!
Personal preference: +60 Rockwell = longer time to sharpen = harder or dull = stay happen longer.
Also I prefer Japanese profile shape.
Excellent advice! I have $300.00 Japanese knives that are so wonderful they almost make me cry. But in MHO, Victorinox knives rule! Very good quality and very affordable. Most importantly though, even someone with almost no skill, can easily sharpen these knives. My other favorite mid priced knives are Russell Grohmann knives, made in Canada. All they publish about their steel is that it is high carbon stainless Solingen, but they are truly fantastic knives!
Sorry but this website is not working !
Excellent and very informative. Well done.
I’ve been collecting chef’s knives for 20+ years, and I think this is one of the best videos on youtube.
What about Zwilling J.A. Henckels knives?
What about Henckel? I have a set of these German knives and they are fantastic.
This was a great video. Thank you
