Robert Herder chef knife on the forum
This post really got me interested in the older Robert Herder knives. I'm pretty flexible for the right price but, ideally, I would like a near clone of Benuser's knife in that post.
I am receptive to "for sale" posts on other forums and shipping a knife in from the EU region. I am looking for a user so, reasonable "wear and tear" that is consistent with the price is fine with me as well as I am NOT looking for something to put under a banker's light in a glass display case.
I like the Gyuto/French general profile so, a low tip with some distal taper is part of the attraction. The high tip with a lot of belly along with an overly thick general blade profile of a modern German Chef's knife isn't what I'm looking for but, I also don't expect a Japanese laser either.
TIA,
Sid
