I have a classic chef already so we went with classic. Sora looks good though I haven’t ever seen one IRL.Quote:

it's great
Don't spend money on a bread knife.
I personally can't stand the straight shape of a bread knife, hitting my knuckles on the board sucks. I prefer an offset shape.
Also, the worst cuts with a knife that I have gotten come from a serrated blade.
These 2 work well, the serrations on the Dexter cut a bit more aggressively. i think the Dexter comes in a wood handle option as well if that's your thing.

I was gifted one of these a LONG time ago. It's a great knife:

I did the exact same as the others... I have high end expensive knives in my collection and ended up buys me this one... It works great and as soon as it doesn’t cut I will buy another one...:

Nice. Their pairing knife is tits. GREAT investment. Another nice one to go along with it is the Shun birds beak knife. Weirdo looking knife with a backwards curved blade that I ended up getting a TON of use from.Quote:

The two on the left are new to compliment the chef’s we already had.
Someone on a local yard sale FB page has listed this as a Chef knife. Says: "Very good for working with meat."

I got a chinese knockoff of a jig something like^^ this for sharpening knives, works well
Not for me or anyone I know that field dresses big game. Something like this is a better tool IMO: https://www.benchmade.com/15006-steep-country.htmlQuote:

I got this Wusthof Deli Knife as a gift recently and as much as I love my heavy ass Wusthof Chef’s knives, this thing has become crazy-useful. Bread, citrus, sammies, bagels, prep...
A nice addition, and something I didn’t even know I needed.

My dad used an old buck knife for whitetail, which I still have, but this is the tool if you want to skin, quarter, and bone out an elk in 30 minutes:Quote:

I also use a shitty filet knife and an amalgam of basically this in the pack at all times, along with extra blades for the above and a small sharpener and a bunch of gloves:

And a 4 month review of this shitty knife I picked up on Amazon gets 5 stars:

Woah. That's badass! What exactly is that? If you can knock out an elk so quickly with it, that tool would definitely make short work of a whitetail.Quote:

You clearly haven't processed an elk, much less in 30 minutes. I would pay money to watch someone process an entire animal with that contraption. /threaddrift take it to Fall Day's AfieldQuote:
