Food prep EDC blades.

Don't have many photos of food prep, but I generally prefer my Super Blue Endura to my CQC-15 for the task. Doesn't stop me from using whatever knife I have handy though.

And then there was brisket. There is barely even a knife present, but it was too good to not include.

At home I prefer using kitchen knives to do kitchen things but my "lunch knife" is my plain edge pacific salt with yellow handle. It's kind of like a small folding santuka. I can keep it sharp and I don't have to worry about rust. The blade is long enough to slice pie and cake, or an apple.

I use my bark river canadian special for butchering meat.

99% of the knives posted in this thread are inherently piss-poor for food prep because of their shape. A $10 chef's knife would outperform them.

This kind of stuff, along with skull-shaped pocket clips, is making me consider throwing all my knives into the ocean.

It's not closed-minded, it's just that most non-kitchen knives don't work well for food prep. I can't imagine how anyone who knows how to use a kitchen knife could deny this.

So, how will you know how well your knife does work in the kitchen if you never try it?

BTW, if you cook like a man, aka barbecue, knowing how your EDC cuts food is really good to know.

Oh, absolutely! John really knows how to make a fine knife.

This knife made A2 one of my all time favorite steels. It just keeps cutting, and it's easy to put a razor sharp edge on. :thumbup:

The fork was in a set of silverware my brother's ex-wife gave my family. I hated her with the burning fury of a thousand suns, but she did give us a nice set of utensils. No idea where she got em.

Oh, and before anybody goes thinking I just hate people for no reason - I hated her because she gave my son a dictionary for Christmas one year. He cried about it and asked "why would aunt Kristin give me a dictionary?" He was heartbroken.

On vacation a couple days later, I decided to check my voicemails. The idiot had "butt dialed" me while she was telling somebody her evil plot to destroy my son's Christmas. The dumbass actually said "it will be f'ing hilarious! Can you imagine the look on his face when he opens it?"... What an evil turd. Oh well, ding dong, the b*tch is gone!

And I like your bread knife. Well played sir, well played.

She sounds pleasant...:eek:

Thats a terrible thing to give a kid but I now know what my co-worker is getting for Christmas.
 
As a Knife head, I find it important to pick up some quality kitchen cutlery.

So in the kitchen, I use kitchen knives.

That being said when food is being prepared in the field, you gotta use whatever your carrying..


Trout


Rabbit


Beets


ocassionally this one sees some time in the kitchen

I don't know about you, but I insist on always using the right tool for the job. And when it comes to precision, culinary, matter separation I pick a knife with blade geometry that suits the task. :p

After the voicemail that does sound like a terrible story. However, growing up my parents did give me a dictionary for Christmas. They always felt the need to accompany practical gifts with fun gifts, like a video game and a tube of toothpaste.

My uncle also once Christmas gifted me a self help book titled "13 Ways Teens Can Act Better". He seriously gifted it with the best of intentions...

It does look good, doesn't it? I sometimes forget how good raw beef can smell.

I picked that up from the local Korean grocery chain, they usually have a very good selection of meats and produce.

Dude, she was an evil bitch. Plain and simple. No good intentions, no plans of a fun gift. She simply did it to see the crestfallen look on my poor son's face. For no reason other than to be a twisted asshat. She is a worthless pile of rhinoceros excrement masquerading as a human being.

Anyhow - I noticed that delicious beef as well. I thought it had to be Kobe or Wagyu. Mmmm mmm mmm! Delicious stuff!
 
Looking at this thread on the day I forgot my lunch is just torturous, you guys have some great pics!
 
Tonight I had what was probably the best steak I have ever cooked.

Now I've got an expiremental brine cooling off for the pork loin I'll be grilling tomorrow night. This is the second brine I've ever done, so I hope I didn't screw it up.
