    Knife Expo 2012 - Pasadena California - March 23rd thru 25th

    I went last year and had a good time. If I make it this year, I'll make sure to stop by your booth and pick up something. I've been meaning to pick up a small block of something nice to have a friend turn a new shaving brush for me.

    Buying a new cleaver

    Do you know if it's carbon steel or stainless? Their web page says stainless in the title but carbon in the description.

    brewing cider

    I'm an avid homebrewer. Just brewed my 100th batch. A 22% ABV Imperial Stout that I'm aging on oak cubes soaked with courvoisier. Calling it the Pimperial Stout. Where you buying your supplies at? Culver or Woodland Hills? For your cider name, might I reccomend calling it Dickson Cider or...

    Shaving with straight razor?? Newbie Help

    Way better story then getting into her car and finding out it's a guy. If I'm ever mugged I hope it's by a hot femme fatale.

    Wusthof Scimeter - My first restoration

    That came out great. What were your steps for restoring the blade? All hand sanding? Did you sand through past the pitting? I've got an old beast of a chef's knife that when I get a chance want to bring the blade back to a nicer condition. Scared to think how many hours it would take to...

    Shaving with straight razor?? Newbie Help

    You guys are great. Bad enough you've fed my knife addiction, now I've got two straights with no end to this obsession with sharp objects in sight. Got 4 or 5 shaves in so far, but this morning was my first without cutting myself. :happymug:

    Homemade chicken stock

    I made a killer Duck Stock over christmas. Bought a bunch of ducks to make duck tamales, rendered the lard and made the stock for the masa. They came out amazing and still have lots of lard and stock left.

    D. Martell Gallery - Re-Handles

    Now that is how I like to start a new year!!! You're the man Dave, thank you for all the time and effort, it looks amazing. I know the wood was a major pain but boy did it come out stunning. I just burnt through my last NY strip so I'll be putting this bad boy to work breaking down a strip...

    Lobster Spliiter Recommendation

    Thought I'd share an update. I picked up the one from www.knifeprocutlery.com and am pretty impressed with it. For the price, it's hard to beat. It's got some mass behind it and feels pretty good. Huge belly on it. I also stumbled across one on eBay too that I just couldn't pass up. The...

    Not sure what's more impressive the book collection or what's going on on top of the Mask DVD case. :thumbsup:

    Lobster Spliiter Recommendation

    I ended up ordering this one. http://www.knifeprocutlery.com/butcher-knives/lobster-splitter/ It was low priced and stainless. They got back to me saying that it has a 10" blade and is a 1/4" thick at the spine so pretty hefty. When I get it in hand let you guys know how it feels. Thanks...

    Lobster Spliiter Recommendation

    http://www.knifeprocutlery.com/butcher-knives/lobster-splitter/ Well that might fit the bill, thank you. Too bad they don't give any description at all about their blades. Don't tell you length let alone thickness. For $40 I might give it a shot. Anyone in a pro kitchen ever used/seen this...

    Lobster Spliiter Recommendation

    That's good to know, I've got a #0 & #3 Beatty. I could give him my 0 and shop for a replacement over time. So you don't need a pointed tip on the blade to do a good split on the lobster? I worry about the Beatty being cast steel though and getting pretty rusted on his boat.

    Lobster Spliiter Recommendation

    Was hoping to get some advice from you guys. My uncle is a commercial lobster fisherman and I was thinking about grabbing him a lobster splitter for Christmas. I’m not entirely sure what he uses now and if he’ll even use this one but he’s a tough one to shop for so better than nothing. I was...

    Blade Buddy

    Interesting idea. Looks like a strop for disposable razors. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/12/09/blade-buddy-by-martell-rbs-shaving_n_1138998.html?ncid=edlinkusaolp00000003

    GUSTAV EMIL ERN

    I've got an old Gustav scimitar that Dave is attempting a rehandle job on for me. It's a great knife.
