Any experience with Dick knives?

[iffy]

Hi all.

Since I've discovered this site I've become consumed with researching knives!

I've heard of "Dick knives" a couple times now, they are German, but now as well known as the other big German knife makers from what little I know. The Dicks tend to be more expensive.

Is there a reason for this? Anyone have any experience with them?

Thanks!

Are you talking about F. Dick?

They aren't easy to carry and I had to put an extra hole in the retention strap hehe.

They also sell sausage stuffers.

I've heard good things about dick brand files that are made In Germany, and there can't be too many German ( or anywhere else for that matter ) companies named dick so I'm assuming they're one and the same.
And their knives are probably worth checking out at the very least.

Well, I tried. Lemme try one more. F. Dick makes great stuff, muck of it for commercial kitchens. Our own FortyTwoBlades features many of their product on his site, including this awesome bad boy....

I did not believe it when I heard a professional meat cutter tell me he owned an 8 lb blade by this name.
I though he was joking. What else was I to think when he said he earned a living using an 8 lb dick that he kept in the trunk of his car?

I had a Dick knife, but the blade bent to the left so I sent it back.

No I normally only need pocket knives

The company has been around since the 1700's so it's unlikely they'll ever change the name, but I do think it's had something of an affect on their ability to gain as much mainstream market share. However, their industrial lines like the Pro Dynamic and ErgoGrip are similarly priced to Victorinox's Fibrox-handled line while generally running their steel a little harder and with better ergonomics to their handles. I swear by mine, and they're my go-to blades for both general culinary work and butchering our meat rabbits.

I wonder if Dick has ever ground an Estonian Puss.

It's a knife. Really! I swear.

Taking it out to cut up lunch at the office would be a bit awkward...

Some people like Dicks.

Some people like Dicks.

Apparently Estonians do. At least once a year.

This just reminds me of this thing called the bme pain Olympics ( I think that's what it was called )

It was this video people used To make each other watch when I was in middle school,
It was a video of this guy chopping his genitals off with a kitchen knife 🔪:barf::barf::barf:


Now if that's not the definition of a sick knife I don't know what is.

The Dicks are so expensive because most are really attached to them .
