Well my husband got me a HAIKU knife. These are by far the best and most expensive cooking knives in the world!

"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."

thats a sweet knife for sure


I need to go get one of those

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. :thumbsup

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

very cool never heard of it before

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. :2 cents:

I gotto get me one of those.

Very cool

nice gift ;/ cut his dick off with that knife lady!


if id give my gf a knife she would do that for sure ;))))

j/k tho , enjoy! time to make me some food, im starving here!

Very Nice.... How much was it?

Will you be writing us a Haiku to tell us about your new Haiku?

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.

They run about 300 Euro here in Germany.

I am eating breakfast, so I am soooo glad it wasn't a "sore" of some kind. :upsidedow

BTW, nice knife :thumbsup

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

looks beautiful, would love to have one of those..hmm

don't hurt yourself

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. :winkwink:

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. :winkwink:

Hellllllllllllo,,,,they are made in germany :1orglaugh

those are very good kitchen knives , I'm used them a lot

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

It really doesnt matter where they are made. :winkwink:

Ha ha ha,,,next your gonna say that sharp shaving razors cause more cuts that dull razors. :1orglaugh

Hi Frank Centofante ! :thumbsup

that is a kick ass knife you got there, great present.

i think your husband wanted to give you a hint ;) j/k

:Oh crap

Now let's just hope you dont go Lorenna Bobbitt on his cock!!!

nice knive ! Enjoy your meal :)

Eh? :uhoh

Actually, they do.

Very nice, I am jealous.
:thumbsup

you forgot modest :winkwink:

That is the first thing that came to mind for me too :1orglaugh

I have some great Japanese knives too - Ginzu :)

Very nice, Vanessa!!

I've seen those they are awesome :thumbsup

nice knife :thumbsup
altho I wouldnt spend 300 on a knife
:2 cents:

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! :thumbsup

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

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


:winkwink:

Thanks! I also enjoy pics when YOU are in them. :thumbsup

LOL


:upsidedow

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

sweet partner....

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. :winkwink:
