Hi everyone. My name is ilir and I'm from UK.
I am new to the world of high quality knives and "stumbled" upon it through research whilst upgrading my cookware to cast iron (Staub, LeCreuset).
At the moment I own a chef's, santoku, carving and utility knives. They are low end I'm affraid (for those from UK they are Tesco's own Professional range) and according to the packaging they are made from Japanese MoV stainless steel. Considering that I've always used cheap rubbish knives before I was quite impressed with the sharpness.
Anyway, I bought all the cast iron pans and thought to upgrade the knives as well so I'm glad I came across this forum.
