My EDC Kitchen Knife, What’s Yours?

[John Phillips]

Posting my most used kitchen knife. Been using this AB for about 3 years now. Extremely comfortable in hand, great weight and balance, cuts with ease. Just a beautifully executed knife. Only had to sharpen once so far. Amazing!!!

I do have a regular set of chefs knives but I reach for this AB most often. I’ll use the chefs when needed.

My most used knife in the kitchen is not a kitchen knife. It works great.

Mine is from one of our European knife makers here on the forum. I've got a nice patina going on it!

Spyderco Bow River for the steak knives
Case kitchen knives for the rest a Santuko, Chef, and bread
Victorinox kitchen scissors

Still using a set of Kershaw kitchen knives picked up back in the early 90’s, they have held up well.

Ha, I've got the perfect entry: my EDChefXL.

Otherwise, whatever is in my pocket will usually end up as a paring knife. It's fun to have a bit of variety.

A 4” Wusthof Chef’s knife, with the full size handle, has replaced my 4” paring knives for most kitchen work. A 7” Old Hickory butcher knife usually handles the rest. These two can do it all, and are fun; the 4” is handy and the 7” is historical.


My avatar shows one sandwich I made with a GEC #15, sheep’s foot blade. That did do it all, during a friendly one month challenge. “Pick one knife for everything.” Kitchen, mail, and household tasks. No serious outdoor work that month, and things worked out well. Lots of washing and care to keep the blade clean and ready.

This modified WD5 in AEB-L from Scrapyard Knives is a regular go-to in the kitchen. I trimmed its finger guard quillion even with the bottom of the ricasso so the blade heel could reach a cutting board. Then I thinned the shoulder behind the edge a bunch and polished the primary bevels.

Sorry, I'm not sure imgur works well with this forum.

These are for X-mas gifts, Jantz supply produces the blanks then I put the handles on. Have the exact ones for my cooking needs though.

 

[Aardvark]

Nice job on the handles. I've done that with a bunch of their kitchen knife blanks over the years, all in wood, though. I like the copper pins.

Well I can confirm it is in fact something to do with my phone browser because I just pulled it up on a PC.

Nice blades!

Thanks! Glad it worked!

The Jantz VG-10 blades are pretty good and I did a few of them many years ago as well! Mom has most of them now.

I picked up a 5” utility knife from Edge Knifeworks. It’s pretty much replaced all my smallish knives.
