Hi all,
I had the pleasure of playing with my first Bark River today. Mike was gracious enough to sell me a mini northstar he had and I have to say: this knife rocks!
I'm much more of a slicer than a chopper, in terms of everyday usage. Sure, I like to throw knives into wood, but mostly I love a good slicer.
This little girl did not disappoint. As a matter of fact, it's the best slicer I've ever had.
Being in foodservice, I test all slicers on food. Below are some pics I just took in my kitchen, messing with some squash.
A nice before pic of the squash and the barkie, happily coexisting. Little did the squash know....
The barkie sliced this one down the middle like a hot knife through butter...
Fine slicing is really where this knife excels. Look how thin these slices are...
Then, I had a little fun. I sliced the squash as thin as I could and then overlaid it on a piece of paper with BFC written on it to see if I could read it...
After the veggie, I took it to paper to see if I could make fine curls. NO PROBLEM!!!!
I'm REALLY IMPRESSED! As a matter of fact, I'm so impressed, I'm now contemplating my next BRKT....great, like I needed another company to drool over....
Thanks for looking.
