Fun food to eat with your knife

[VorpelSword]

I eat my peas with honey
I've done it all my life
It doesn't make them taste good
But it keeps them on my knife!​

My mom taught me that peas on the knife poem when I was about seven or so. She learned it from her mother.
A few weeks ago, at dinner, my 10 year old niece asked me if I wanted to hear a poem she just learned. After the first few words, we recited it together.

Litteraly every time I go to a steakhouse. Every time I go to Bob's Steakhouse with the work bros I have to explain how I am slicing my steak, and my friends are tearing. It always makes sense in the end when I slice my tomahawk right off the bone in one swipe after everyone else buzz saws theirs. Looks are priceless.

Agreed, I would have to have a steak to use mine.

I use my pocket knife about every time I go out to eat. Even if they provide a knife.

Is that a stainless mini trapper? Blue bone? Nice looking knife. I will have to look for one like it.

Among other things mentioned in this thread, I’ve found a pocket knife pretty helpful for hacking through all the packaging in an MRE. Also cutting bread and spreading condiments.

I know I shouldn't miss those things but I kind of do. Trading, mixing concoctions to make something new, and pouring hot sauce over everything. And the jalapeno and the bacon cheese packs. Delightful.

From the time I was knee high to a grasshopper, I've always loved using a knife on watermelon. Not just cutting it with something huge, but sitting on the front porch and neatly slicing bite size pieces with a pocket knife. Nowadays, I do find it tremendously satisfying to cut a thick steak with a well sharpened knife. Before I had to quit eating stupidly (for myself) I used to enjoy cutting my candy bar into small pieces also.

Watermelons want wakizashis (always advocating alliteration).

I keep a BPS puukko in my desk drawer specifically for eating my daily apple
I don't need to cut it off the core, but I prefer the mouth feel and being able to cut around the core efficiently.

I hate apple skin. Also dont like the feel of eating them whole. Dunno what it is, but I like them in pieces. I also like cutting them.

Nothing like sitting and watching a good game of rugby on a Saturday afternoon with a nice big piece of wet Biltong and a favourite pocket knife to cut it!

As I sat down to dinner last night, I considered this thread. I have only recently learned of the wonders of blade re-grinding. Just a few days ago I picked up a Spyderco Tenacious for the sheer purpose of learning to re-grind the blade. I managed to get it from .022 down to .010. and put a hair whittling edge on it. I came home from work late last night and my wife plopped a massive T-bone steak in front of me. The level of satisfaction I derived from that sharp little blade gliding through that massive chunk of beef is beyond my simple comprehension, but boy, howdy! It sure was there!

Did this a couple weeks ago. Ate it off the blade, and was a little nervous...
