Well, I got to thinking that maybe I should post the knives I have here after the robbery. Many of these are vintage if not antiques. Some I inherited from Chef and I will be posting those in a separate thread in the coming days. Some will be moving on to new homes and some are going to be given new life. I only have three Japanese knives in the bunch and only 2 of them are truly made in Japan and one is a Carter suji . Enjoy the photos. Most of these will be gone in a week or two and will be replace with others.
 
let's try it now

Will do! Thanks for sharing your collection btw, I got blinded by my forgecraft lust and my manners went out the window!
 
Son, let me know if/when you've got anything for sale.
 
And I thought I had to be the only person on the planet who digs three tine forks. :doublethumbsup:
 
Sad to think what was lost in the robbery (at least your old Chef's knives were spared), but this is still an impressive collection.

The Sabatiers and that one pristine looking three-tine fork (in the middle of its grouping) are my favorites.

Thanks for sharing Son.
 
Those are called bacon forks! At least, that's what my Grampa called them....
 
Very cool, Son. Hopefully, you can add the Rogers to the mix soon. :)
 
Cool collection! My uncle has a scimitar that's very similar to the bottom one in your first picture--I'd never gotten a chance to use a knife like that before visiting this past summer and it was a real blast! Love the vintage German carbon parer there too.
 
Would the recurve be the result of fifty years of steeling, or is it the original profile? I find it hard to recognise a désosseur.
 
fifty years of steeling and grinding wheel. that knife tip is probably only a 1/4" wide now. fairly useless actually, but chef could make it sing.
