As promised - today the little (well - not so little in capabilities!!) TK2 took on a full beef tenderloin roll to appease the hungry knife nuts at the JK / jds1 Michigan Yurt "Flying Knives" Gathering.
The stage set:
I had anticipated that the knife would be too small to stand up to a whole tenderloin roll, but the nicely sized handle allowed me to carve up the roll with surprising ease!
First remove the side-meat - I use this for steak and eggs or fajitas, or sometimes I add it to some stew meat and make italian beef in the croc pot.
Next I move to the roll - I like to get all of the connective tissue off of my tenderloin.
The tip and very well designed handle give you control and confidence - the TK2 made it easy to get the silver skin off the roll.
I never serve an end piece - these go into the breakfast steak bag.
Ready to cut out the steaks for my JK Friends that will be in Michigan this weekend.
The TK2 made short work of cutting out the steaks
Wow - nice marbling!! These will be wonderful eating in the cool evening around the campfire!
When the cutting was done, I cleaned it up and used my new light-tent to take some glamour shots (such that my ability allows)
The TK2 is now getting a pleasant, honest patina - just like the rest of my well used JKs
I will ask Peter if I can keep the TK2 to take to the Gathering so that jds1 can have a look, and I'll take pictures up there - otherwise it will be on it's way to the next passaround participant.
Thanks Peter for allowing us to experience the TK2 - a fine design and this example is particularly beautful.
