Cold steel Kitchen Classics knives?

[lonestar1979]

How are these knives for price?I am thinking about getting boning knife.How is edge holding?How do these compare to Victorinox ,Wustoff and Henckels kitchen knives?This knife seems to have nice thin geometry and is inexpensive.PS.My CS Long hunter was my best kitchen knife ever,that also cut better than anything I had with that thin edge geometry,but I lost it few years ago.

Kudu and Eland are amazing knives,had one but gave it away to a friend.I am going away for a trip down south and will try to use Eland as main knife for everything,mainly cooking.Ordering one tomorrow!

They're decent knives, particularly at that price, but I would honestly spend a bit more and get into a Tojiro. If you want stainless their DP line is good, but their more traditional series is an absolute steal.

I have a several that have been used regularly for over 15 years. They are not great, but they handle abuse well. I use them for cookouts and grilling and when friends are over so they don't get into my good knives. They take and hold an edge well, and can be stuffed into the dishwasher without a problem. I have the 4" and 6" Gp's and the bread knife.
