They had to sharpen a knife and knife skills and winner gets a Kramer
 
Custom $4000 knife Kramer was on there cutting rope
 
The sharpening techniques from some the chefs is scary
 
The wifey and I had a late dinner at Next in Chicago and saw the Executive Chef sharpening his Nenox Suji on quite possibly the most dished stone I have ever seen. Just because you can cook has absolutely nothing to do with your knife sharpening skills.
 
just new tonight so no. I will watch the next showing in 10 min..
 
Well, as I suck at both cookng and sharpening it is good to know that I apparently have some degree of balance in my life that is lacking in the lives of others. :lol2:

Had to go to the bathroom right when it came on. got distracted on the way back, and low and behold I missed it at 10 min in.

went looking for the repeat time this would be on and found this.

I was watching this tonight thinking "everyone on this forum would love to take part in this challenge!".

But then I thought we'd all be too OCD about it and would be finding cardboard or phone books to strop on while all the ****** wire edges or big burrs push cut that paper and we all lost.
 
i think most of us here would pretty much beat those guys at sharpening. =D
 
The stones said Kramer on the side. I think they were double sided, black and white.
 
i think it's those glass stone knock offs that has bob kramer's name on them.
 
After the sharpening debacle the final skills task was breaking down a rabbit. One guy asks "how the f do you break down a rabbit?" Other guy says "just like a cat" ROFLMAO. Don't kniow that that will make the reruns...
 
What does bald eagle taste like? Kinda like California condor but a bit less gamey. :biggrin:

That's so weird, watched the first episode tonight on the pvr and all they did was select those moving on to Seattle, 4 different challenges from 4 judges and those selected move on, but that was the end of the episode, nothing more. I was expecting this Kramer challenge but nothing.

Are we an episode behind or something here in Canada? Don't think I missed anything. Weird.
 
Holy crap that's crazy, how is it that we are so far behind? Despite it being on my pvr it was a "new" episode that was only recorded from the day before. Damn lol
 
Honestly I kind of thought that since this season is in Seattle that it would only make since to have Bob Kramer on as guest judge. But then I thought better of it because naturally it would have to some sort of knife/sharpening challenge which to me just sounded senseless. I thought for Sure that any chef who makes the cut onto the show MUST know how to sharpen a knife!? Man, I was Way wrong.
But IMHO, one of the best quick fire prizes Ever. Lucky bastard.
