My daughter found the razor sharp farm knife to be faster and easier when dicing - rocking it like a see-saw across the pieces.

Rad -- that method of chopping is the safest and easiest in the kitchen. Also, is that a Mora hiding inconspicuously at the bottom of the pic?
 
Cute, that isn't a glass cutting board is it:eek:
I just got done tuning up my carving knife. If I had company coming over I'd use the M43.
 
Glass chopping board:eek:

Oh well, nothing a quick steeling can't fix. Nice pics mate, the Farm Knife just looks better and better...

There's no such a thing called overkill in the kitchen. Bigger knives are far safer to use period! That thing is huge! Or maybe its all those diced vegetables in comparison.

I stuffed myself today! Took alot of discipline to leave food for the guests. :D
 
Lovely daughter, reminds me of Sandra Bullock. Beautiful knife, too.
Food looks good, except for the onions, which I'm unable to digest.
One of these days, I'll get the farm knife. Would be great for cutting pizza, with a rocking motion.
Wally world has bamboo and cherry cutting boards for reasonable prices.
 
Gorgeous and happy looking daughter with super thin blade.

How thick is it? It looks very well-made.
 
jerry426, what part of Central Florida? I spent a good part of the mid-90's terrorizing the fish population and the UCF campus down there:p
 
I've noticed that khukuris are easier on the wrist for chopping and dicing, as long as you're cutting near the edge of the counter/table/whatever. You end up with a much more comfortable, natural wrist angle, compared to a straight knife. I think Uncle Bill had a story about a Nepali woman preparing potatoes for dinner that way. The "bent" part of a khuk is definitely great for peeling potatoes and fruit and stuff.
 
Didn't she use a real large khukuri to do it too? Or was that a story from Howard Wallace when he visited Nepal?

As I mentioned in my review I was surprised that I could cut such thin slices of cabbage with the Bilton. Can do it too with its bigger cousin the 15.5 inch Ganga Ram or BAS. Haven't chopped cabbage in 4 years. :)
 
Beautiful daughter and great work, thank you for sharing
