This is mostly a curiosity question, but what exactly causes different knives to feel different when they hit the cutting board. I understand that the grind and other factors affect the feedback while actually cutting product, but why do knives feel different when they hit something solid? For example, if I was fast chopping an onion or tapping the tip of my knife on my cutting board (a bad habit), some knives seem a little hollow and thud, some feel solid and hard, and some bounce and vibrate. I feel like this feedback affects my preference for knives a bit, but just curious if anyone knows.
