  1. A good question to ask yourself in the beginning is if you want a German style knife or a Japanese style knife. If you have an Amazon account, it’s easy to try both and return the one you don’t like. 
     

    For Japanese style, MAC is the brand I like. This knife is ridiculous:

    In the upper end of what you were willing to spend, but there is no reason why this won’t last you for the rest of your life. There’s a slightly higher chance of chipping it supposedly because Japanese steeper is thinner (and sharper) but I’m super clumsy and it’s never happened to me.

     

    I also do have a German style knife but it was a gift. The company is called Baron Cutlery. They are from NJ and they don’t even have a functioning website (just Instagram). I absolutely love the knife I have though. I sharpen it once like a year and I’m good.

     

    But something bigger brand would be the classic Wusthof. Serious Eats loves this knife:

    You’ll also want to get a sharpening stone and a honing steel rod. The sharpening stone is literally there to use once a year or every 9 months. The honing steel rod is you can use each time you cut stuff and you’ll notice a difference with a honed knife.

    Not interested in this back and forth tbh. Brittany Gibson has been covering George politics for a while. Arguing that this is somehow the result of Springer’s influence is completely conspiracy theory thinking. You’re welcome to it.
