Does Mario still make knives?

In a general sense I would say he does... occasionally.. when he feels like it. He brought a knife I hadn't seen before to the Midwest get together. Great guy.


And somewhat back on topic. I forgot to grab a group shot of my line up today but I did take a couple action shots. Here is the Harner boner with a rack.

Always surprised more people don't contribute to threads like this. I like'em so I'll bump.

Today:

Old school dexter
Mizuno Honyaki original gangster in white
Marko asymmetric convex in A2
Tanaka in ginsanko
Harner boner
Itou petty in R2
Sakai Yusuke in white

Used the Mizuno a lot today. It was really great.

Itinomonn deba, shigefusa gyuto, harner k-tip staber, cck1303, Marko honesuki, old dirty misono dragon. My funi profile hd2 gyuto and konosuke Fujiyama Damascus gyuto aren't in the pic but always in my bag. I rotate often so I'll take another shot in a few days.
 
That's a 9 year old gyuto. But I used it everyday for like 5 years.
 
I really like these types of threads.

I'm traveling now, in Chicago. So my bag is light, packed with tools I can easily replace if something sour should happen.

 
Shun Fuji suji
10" ZKramer
240 Kurosaki R2

All freshly sharpened for the new kitchen. That Kurosaki gets too sharp. Scares me a little...

I didn't know being a Chef was a prerequisite to having a bag:cool2: I'm certainly not one.

My hobby/job(s) involve some catering prep among other kitchen things. Today I was asked to do 8 hrs prep for a wedding. No idea what menu was so I put these in the bag. This is pretty standard load. Short Suji, two Gyuto, Petty, Bread and Paring. Assorted tools, thermos (no coffee - no workee) and as a nod to FL weather, a flashlight.

The bag is a Land's End tote. A seamstress stiched in the small pockets. Might need to wash it someday - but not today.

Seldom use the bread knife at these things but today had all these spring rolls that needed to be turned into passed hors d'oeuvres. Stefan - see anything you recognize?

J, Down here they're called Roux spoons. Flat tips so they can go into the sides of a pot where presumably roux is being made. Spoons so they can serve said roux.
 
Who serves a roux? Or stirs one with a spoon? I use a whisk. Those spoons are good for some plating tasks, but I'd rather have another Kunz shape or Update Regency shape as they are much more versatile.
 
Those spoons are also sold at an affordable price at a popular restaurant supply/cutlery store in Chicago. I don't know if Chef Marc bought his there for while he's in town, but I'm just saying.. I've got a few in my kit as well for that exact reason. I like 'em.
 
Love the grab and go Sabs! Any chance for a close up?
