Does it come with a glove to remove finger tips from the blade? How does it fare against starch from potato water? How old is the handle?in this category the zwilling twin 1731 is pretty cool.
Not 1,000,000,001 years old? Or 9,999,999 years? The other one was 3,249.... Not 3,200 or 3,000....it comes with a blade that removes fingertips, with or without lubrication by potato starch water. the handle is 1 million years old.
Don't understand that crazy high tip. At least for me — I'm short — totally unusable.Oh yes, the 1731 is indeed very nice - one of the nicest European factory knives out there IMO. And I bet it would be a better cutter than the Aeon
I've used one of their knives with that profile. It works. The tip is a little odd but usable.Don't understand that crazy high tip. At least for me — I'm short — totally unusable.
For big pieces of meat it works well, something like a butcher's knife.Don't understand that crazy high tip. At least for me — I'm short — totally unusable.
Familiar with the Robert Herder 1922?Oh yes, the 1731 is indeed very nice - one of the nicest European factory knives out there IMO. And I bet it would be a better cutter than the Aeon
Had to Google that:Familiar with the Robert Herder 1922?
Had to Google that:
Very Frenchy, reminds me a lot of my DéGlon. However, it has the same issue as mine - that bolster, all the way to the edge. That's why I'm partial to the Twin 1731 (don't have any), Wüsthof Ikon and Zwilling Pro.
Yeah, I think he's on commission or something...Learnt about it from Benuser

I understand the principle behind the "finger guard", and maybe in a professional kitchen or with non-knife people it's a good thing, but for me it's more of a hindrance. But what's the hardness of the 1922? My Déglon is too soft, so though it easily gets razor sharp it demands a lot more touching up.
It's 60 HRC c75 carbon steel.
