Knife Killer Strikes Again!!!

She must be eatin' her wheaties. I don't know how she does it! This was done cutting the notoriously hard Bleu de Basque cheese. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] To quote the late great Freddy Mercury "Another one bites the dust".

In case you forgot her last victim. The vanilla bean masacre.

What ever you do, do NOT let her touch your KD!

Perhaps she should upgrade to the Oxo Pro model with its bolster, etc. Assuming you can afford to let her have $8.50 from your knife-buying fund......

She treats the nice ones with love. It's just the cheap ones that reap her wrath.

My wife is the same way. Finally broke down and let her use a SwampRat, then a Busse. Worked for her. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] The Busse snuck in cause I told her Busse's only cost $50 or so and I had a very thin one out doing some meat cutting duties. Very thin for Busse or SwampRat (a sister company) is 3/16".

Yeah, I know, not like the Japanese knives, but her idea if it won't cut through a bone is grab a rubber mallet and baton it on through. She isn't subtle and nothing else was holding up. The edges might roll or dent a bit, or not. I've driven them into concrete (batoning wood for the smoker) with no ill effects at all to the edge.

Something to think about for hard core kitchen use.

Maybe she should stop using cheap ones :P

Happy birthday, BTW!
