I need to go get one of those

**jacked** · 07-17-2005, 07:36 AM

thats a hot looking cooking knife i'm more about the flat handle though the round handles aren't as easy to grip when chopping and things of that sort or maybe its just because i have big hands

This knife is so well balanced that stability is not a question.

"HAIKU, the traditional knife-line by Chroma Cutlery, Inc.
In Japan, the art of the sword smith has a long tradition. Today HAIKU knives are manufactured in small Japanese knife factories out of high-grade modern steel. Borrowing from an ancient method, a bamboo peg ("mekugi") is inserted from the side into every HAIKU knife where the tang and handle are joined for added stability.To this day, traditional sword smiths in Japan use this time-tested technique when crafting swords like those once used by the samurai of medieval Japan."

Howcome it sounds like something out of a TV-shop?

Thats just marketing text from their site. It's one of the best cooking knives in the world used by chefs like Emeril Lagasse, Nobu, Bocuse, Charlie Trotter, etc.

For those who don't know what a haiku is:

hai·ku

1. A Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons.

2. A poem written in this form.

I'm no that creative but maybe thinking of you will inspire me.

F. Dick makes the best knives in the world.

Thats why all culinary schools use them, just like I do.

I disagree. 90% of the top restaurants and chefs use Japanese knives like Haiku and several other Japanese producers. Others are used by the help.

To each his own, but the fact sill remains that F. Dick is used almost exclusively in culinary schools.

I'm sure F. Dick are perfect but hence the word "schools" plus you should do some research outside of the USA.

It's easier to hurt yourself with a dull knife than a sharp one.

nice knife

altho I wouldnt spend 300 on a knife

**DateDoc** · 07-17-2005, 09:29 AM

For sheer sharpness your type of knife with its carbon steel blade is the best. Yes, it will stain but you will never find as sharp a knife. No doubt about it. I use Masahiro knives which are quite similar to what you have.

Thanks! I like yours also!

**CheneyRumsfeld** · 07-17-2005, 09:40 AM

isn't that the knife used by the Japs for Hari Kari?

**TurboAngel** · 07-17-2005, 09:42 AM

IMO you should only post pics when you're in them.

Is it better than the knives you see on informercials that claim to cut thru concrete, bone, and metal, without ever getting dull?

**Ace_luffy** · 07-17-2005, 10:13 AM

Thats the crap they sell to the masses. This knife belongs in the kitchen and doesnt cut bone, metal and concrete. Some say it needs to get sharpened once a year and its made fron surgical steel.
