Best steak pocket knife: Forge de Laguiole

@docwho2828 4 дня назад

Right! Laguiole is the ultimative portable Steak Knife. And a good EDC anyway. It seems to me that these knives are not well known in the USA.

@Leftyotism 4 дня назад

I only got one PF, the Victor, and I absolutely do not trust its barely engaging liner lock. Why would they even design it as such! So thin and it barely engages the tang. It feels like it could slip out any moment, which makes the knife much less fun for me unfortunately.

“EDC steak knife”

@happykt 5 дней назад

I would never think to use one of my nice (over $50) folding EDC knives as a steak knife because of sanitary reasons; i.e. the grease and food that would get stuck in/on my knife, including in the liners and pivot and might stain my scales (micarta or wood). I am not going to take apart my knife to clean it out of animal grease and food after using them to eat. The two folding knives I bought for camping and picnics are from Ontario Knife Company and are their Camp Plus knives. The scales are made out of plastic and the knives cost me $12 each. I have a bread and chefs knife. As for the Qubit, I own four of them, including a purple version made out of S35VN by Civivi, for $90. Its an exclusive by another major knife seller and is not available from KC.

I recently picked up a full set of vintage Gerber Legedary Blades Miming steak knives in the walnut presentation box, literally the OG gentleman's steak knives. Gerber started out as an advertising agency that got into making knives as presentation gifts for their clients. The knives are a bit worse for the wear, the aluminium handles could use polishing, and the stainles steel blades could probably use a good sharpening, but they are perfectly functional. I know KnifeCenter doesn't sell vintage, but it's always good to be reminded that the secondary market exists.

The Sandrin slip joint TCK…..is the sharpest knife I have ever owned…by far….miles ahead of maxamet or CPM15…etc….its an absolute laser and should last the rest of my life and even my children’s life….edge retention off the chart…if you can handle a slip joint I HIGHLY recommend it over EVERY other knife EVER made…thank you to Knifecenter for turning me on to them….amazing 2:54

Do you sharpen them yourself? Basically, what's your process? Thanks either way. I've wanted one for some time now. Do you get that quality feel from them. Anywho, I need to pick one up. 😃👍 Take Care!

@wattsmichaele 4 дня назад

I lost the use of my left hand and right eye after my service and today depend on factory edge sharpness. The tungsten blades from Sandrin are very thin behind the edge and with their microbevel are very very very sharp. It’s an incredible slicer. You might not use it to baton your way out of a helicopter but for 99% of cutting tasks it’s the best by far if ANY knife. You’ll be extremely happy and stunned at the cutting performance. Let me know how it works out for you.:)

By the way, I know they're made in Italy, are we talking about sending back there to be sharpened, or do they have a place in the states? Thanks again!

@TheGunf1ghter 5 дней назад

A classy steak knife I think for this, I would say a nice slip joint. Maybe a sod buster, or a Texas toothpick, or a trapper. Lots of options brands and handles to choose from. Usually not that much money. And can be traditional or modern classy.

I use my CRKT Ceo as a steak knife it works quite well. I usually carry it in my shirt pocket because it looks similar to a pen. I also carry a CRKT Overland in my edc backpack to use as a food prep knife for cutting up salads I just wish the blade was a little longer, could you recommend a folding knife that would be better for this task?

@ejesoriginal 5 дней назад

When I go to a restaurant for steak, I take a Opinel Number 8 in Sandvik 12C27 for my gentleman's steak knife. It is cheap, sharp, stainless and looks like it belongs on the table as much as anything else. I HATE the dull, serrated abominations the steakhouses give you that literally destroys the expensive meat you purchased.

Pro Tip: Ballistol is food safe and also acts as a disinfectant, which makes it great for treating wood and preventing bacteria to sneak into it. It's also a penetrating oil so it goes right in. It also doesn't gum up and all the good stuff. (And ofc it's also food safe.)

I bought a Spyderco K2 for steak. For years it exclusively cut steak and lobster. 😎 Now I tend to grab the sprint Spyderco Catchman. I like longer blades to keep steak juice away from the pivot.

@SamPeabody 4 дня назад

Whenever someone asks about a folding knife for use with food - particularly meat - my first thought is cleaning. You wouldn’t want to put a knife covered in jous back into your pocket, and personally, I wouldn’t want to cut a steak with I knife I had been using to open greasy Amazon boxes that just arrived on a boat from China. So how do you properly clean a folding knife well enough to wipe on a nice steak? It would also be helpful if you talked about the CA Prop 65 warnings. I might be more OK with toxic chemicals in a work knife than with a knife I plan on using to cut food.

Hi DCA, Thomas, and Seth, I have a question for you: what kind of multitool do you think will retain some historical value in the future? I am a collector of Opinel and Swiss Army knives. I believe that the Victorinox Replica 1897 and the Victorinox Pioneer carry historical value, as they are replicas of tools that were revolutionary in their own way or used in significant historical contexts. I would like to expand my collection and was considering the Leatherman Bond, which is a reinterpretation of the original PST. What do you think? Do you have any suggestions? I would love to hear your opinion and perhaps get some recommendations for Italian tools that might be interesting to add to my collection. Best regards!

Hello David and Thomas! After several years, finally my wife has decided to get her own EDC knife. She decided that the locking and opening system that works best for her, after testing using my knives, is the burton lock.

Mike Stewart from Bark River also differentiates full and saber grind. In japanese terminology saber ground knives have shinogi line while full flat do not. For example, scandi is a low hight saber grind. Being flat, convex or hollow is a different issue.

Hello DCA and team, I have a tough one for you. I recently moved to the beach and I am having issues with the knives I typically carry. Every few days I have to take apart my knives to clean them because no matter what I do, fine pieces of sand find their way into the inner workings of the knife and make my fidgeting horribly unsatisfying. I need your help finding a very corrosion-resistant, sand-proof/easy-to-clean, left-hand-friendly, knife. I am a huge fan of classy and fidgety folders but I am open to anything you feel fits my needs. No particular budget but nothing too crazy. Thank you and keep up the good work.

Is there a decent knife for skinning and meat processing? We hunt mainly hogs and roebucks.. Sometimes a deer.. Now I have a selection of knives for these tasks.

Hey DCA & friends! I've recently been binging your KniFAQ and love the content. If I may, I have two somewhat related questions for you. First, which Spyderco compression lock knife has the best action? I have a Shaman and a Lil Native, and I don't love lock action on either. The Shaman's finger choil gets in the way of the compression lock tab, so I can't flick it open, and it hits my finger when closing. The Lil native is a bit small for my large-sized hands. I know there must be better implementations of the compression lock on other knives, but I don't want to find it through trial and error. Second, what is the most spydercoie Spyderco knife? Meaning, which knife most fully represents the soul and character of Spyderco the company?

@MichaelMcPherson-sp2jt 5 дней назад

Hi again David, A while back there was a question regarding "knives to stash everywhere." I've been thinking for a while that the Cold Steel Pocket Bushman was snubbed on that one. The price on that blade has barely changed in a decade. And maybe I'm crazy, but I honestly think, dollar for dollar, it's the best knife money can buy. You just get so much bang for your buck. And on that note, while I'm thinking about it: why do we in the knife world say "bang for your buck?" Would it not be more appropriate for us to say "slash for your cash?" Serious question.

DCA could you explain what a false edge is? I’ve seen them on some of the Bradford guardians but don’t know what it is. What is its designed purpose, pros, and cons?

@Regolith86 5 дней назад

False edges are areas where the spine of the blade towards the tip is ground down so that they almost create an edge but are still blunt. This is usually done to create a smaller tip in order to increase piercing performance while keeping the point a bit stronger than it would be if it were a full-on dagger point. Historically, especially on swords and fighting knives, false edges were often field sharpened to create a dagger tip to make piercing even more efficient and to allow back cuts. IIRC some swords had the false edge sharpened from the manufacturer, though they are still often called a false edge anyway.

Gentlemen's pocket steak knife? Too bad Boker discontinued the fixed blade Kwaiken.... they even used to sell pairs without sheathes as steak knives.
