1. So, what kind (brand) did you get?

Inquiring minds want to know.

[Deja Q]

2. No-name brand at Target:

Chefmate.

Yep, the fairy frog hopped on over to Target. :D

$29.99

The handles sold me. Soft-grip plastic.

Now walmart would have the same identical set, branded under a different name, for maybe $5 less. Big whoop. (I've seen this before with 'store label' products; same second-rate fascist-made trash but with their own personalized name.

4. Good for the fairly frog!

He knows not to go to WalMart!

3. What's the first thing

7. A chicken's breasts...

And, no, I don't mean a DIY breast reduction kit even though I think mine are a bit large for a guy...

[bigwillq]

Nothing else since the chicken???

:shrug:

[Deja Q]

11. Nope. Using them wisely...

:D

Need to lacquer the wood block anyway.

5. Have you cut yourself yet?

[Deja Q]

8. I had with my old knife.

Entirely by accident; I'll never look at onions in the same way again... :cry:

16. Couple of months ago I was asking for advice on knives

for my SIL. I settled on Dexter Russell. Sharpened them to a razor edge, first with my Lansky sharpener to set the edge, then with a Spiderco Sharpener (which I also gave her).

She absolutely loves them but my brother has already cut himself twice. The second time he wound up in ER where they glued the wound back together.

He is now afraid of knives.

17. Excellent knives

I'm very happy with my Wusthof Tridents. If you treat them well, they'll last a lifetime. They were worth every penny I paid for them.

6. How many are there and can you cut through a coke can? n/t

[Deja Q]

9. Yes and Probably-only-once

:D

10. Have you tried the super-duper ACME magnet on it?

Do you need a magician's assistant?

:D

[Deja Q]

12. Anyone to help me with my magic wand would be appreciated!

15. Well,
