Re: Cooking Knives thread
If you are buying the knives because you love them, fine, but otherwise I think that you should consider spending your cooking dollar elsewhere.
The value to your cooking of a high end set of knives is pretty limited in my view. For example, if I would were building and outfitting a kitchen on a fixed budget, I would I would much rather buy $800 dollars of additional stove, than I would spend $800 more dollars on high end knives, or high end pots or pans.
Take a look the next time you are in a restaurant, even a very high end restaurant. They are not using expensive knives and cookware to cook your food. The stoves, ovens and broilers, however, typically blow away the average home equipment.
