Correct term is - they were
"they were amazingly great"
guts to guts ...

What could be better than tasting a slice of Epoisses with a good glass of wine and a good knife like Mathieu Callejon's Byro?

I know like 75% of those words.

Looks delish and... cool knife!

I've had my share of fried bologna sandwiches....but made the switch to mortadella a while ago and haven't looked back.
On a butter toasted kaiser, nothing else, perfect.

Love both with mustard for me!

Awesome knife ! It looks like a Russian blade with a Bavarian Jagdnicker handle. And it's long ! Must be amazing in the kitchen.

Processing a slaughtered pig:

Most beautiful butcher knife ever ! Must be a pleasure to use.

Just for the picture (old picture). Not much food in it. I don't even remember why I diced up this lime...

Thanks! I call it the Competition Carver as the first couple of guys that ordered one were BBQ competitors. Thats my son's father in law using it there. My daughter in law and I made it for him for Christmas.

I will answer on the blades in the kitchen.
1. most of my great kitchen knives were purchased used from Goodwill. People don't know how to recondition, sharpen or maintain their knives. Or, they get divorced. I have a top of the line, wood cased Gerber knife apparently given at a wedding and then later given to charity. Retail value has to be $150. Or, I used a super, restored Victorinox butcher knife last night to cut a shared Porterhouse steak.
2. Not very much entertaining people at home any more. 6 Forschner 5 inch steak knives made in Portugal. They are partially and almost unnoticeably serrated for an inch and one half. 3 tomato knives. Some victorinox steak knives.
3. For many years, inexpensive Walmart steak knives were serviceable. After deciding to use Grandma's 100 year old silver service on a regular basis, I donated the Walmart steak knives, still serviceable.
4. Oh, I almost forgot. I have two sheathed cleavers. Done in honor of Edward G. Robinson who played a Chinese tong asset in a now politically incorrect movie in the 1930s.
