    Good Stainless Contenders for Cook-in-training

    A softer, stainless knife will probably be a good idea until she establishes good technique and knife habits.

    Damascus clad 210 gyuto recommendation under $400.00

    This would be my recommendation too. I've tried quite a few $300-600 range gyuto and my 240 mm yoshikane black damascus is by far my favorite.

    WTB Graphics Card

    6800 xt is really nice. Temps and performance haven't disappointed me. AMD gpus have a bad reputation because of the drivers, but at this point in its lifecycle, they're stable. Performance matches my friend's 3080 (when raytracing is off of course). I have the asrock taichi 6800 xt and he has...

    WTB Graphics Card

    I used ATR stonks and stockalert. Here's the link to stockalert - Stock Alert Discord Server Haha, the two cards are in use. My wife and I both needed an upgrade. Running warzone at 40-50 fps at 720 p on a 2k 144 hz monitor wasn't any fun

    Are there any good "Damascus" Kitchen Knives for up to 300$?

    Good article. When choosing knives, steel is not on my high list of priorities. Grind and profile are more important to me. Given the same knife in the two different steels, it'd be a tossup for me and would be up to price. I'm a simple home cook so edge retention does not matter to me as much...

    Are there any good "Damascus" Kitchen Knives for up to 300$?

    In what regards is it lacking? I've owned knives in both and they're both good steels when done well. Vg10 has much better toughness and stain resistance. Sg2 has marginally better edge retention and ease of sharpening. If deciding between two knives at the same price, I'd look at maker before...

    Are there any good "Damascus" Kitchen Knives for up to 300$?

    Nothing wrong with well treated VG10. Ryusen makes some very good knives from the steel

    Epoxy and chemical sensitivities

    They require expensive bonding agents to work well and do not reliably or strongly bond metal. Given the cost and the outcome, I wouldn't recommend going this route.

    SKD 12, SKD11/SLD. Help me pick one

    I have knives in both. SKD stains more readily, but that's the only noticeable difference
