Kitchen Knives

[Holzfaeller]

I just received two Spyderco kitchen utility knives in SE that I ordered as Christmas gifts, intended for people who have only horribly blunt knives in their kitchen, as many people do. Now I have to question my judgment when I see how sharp the Spyderco kitchen knives are. I think that these two people will be afraid of them and go back to using their familiar, if rather useless, cutlery.

Some people are afraid of change. Sorry.

There is a brand that says their knives always stay sharp that makes thin knives... and a youtube guy was testing one. He showed that you could cut an apple with the spine of the blade, but it didn't cut through the skin.

Don't worry- if they go to folks that don't know how or when to sharpen their kitchen knives, they'll end up blunt soon enough

We have bumped onto the "TOO SHARP" adversity a number of times.

My SE kitchen knife is the knife I fear most. I've cut myself more times with that thing....still awesome though.

I purchase my SE K04 and K06 on the knife show in 2006. For some reason they do not see much use. My wife favorite is Yang. I prefer K04 PE and Santoku. Both of us using paring knife. It is very good.
I can only wish that Spyderco would make 9-10 " FFG Guyto with 2 mm stock and bread knife.

We're working on a bread knife.

Thank you Sir.
May I ask how long blade will be?

[TheOutdoorNerd]

It's the blunt tool that's the unsafe tool. Ignorance is bliss.

Ooooh bread knife.

I look forward to the bread knife. I'm guessing wavy serrations and 10+" blade.

Very cool about the bread knife. I was hoping for this because one of my favorite kinds of bread are the whole loaves that are crusty on the outside and softer on the inside. I have a Henkels bread knife and also a Dexter-Russell serrated knife that I use to cut bread but I was hoping to see a Spyderco Bread Knife. Very nice :)

My **considerably** better half complained when I first used my Sharpmaker on our assorted kitchen knives (Global, Westhof, Henckels, Sabatier, mostly).

Now she complains when I don't.

10+"

Nice. Thank you. Can you comment on the handle material? Steel? Please :)

Part of the KO series, same handle, MBS-26.

Great. Thank you sir. When can I place the order? :)

[TomAiello]

I actually use the K04 in SE as my bread knife. Works great, and eliminates the need for a dedicated bread knife in the kitchen.

Any chance of a Spyderco wooden block since the kitchen knives seem to be making a resurgence?

Maybe someone has already found a block that fits the kitchen knives.
