Meridian Elite Chefs Knife, 8.00 in (ME3686-8) Category: Meridian Elite Knife Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This chefs knife has served as a replacement for my henckels for five years now. Five years of hard work in numerous high volume kitchens. The spine is smoothed over to prevent serious cooks calus, and since the bolster does not extend all the way down to the edge its easy to sharpen the whole length of the blade. No bowing, no grinding. Also the blade is ground at a steeper angle than most german knives resulting in a sharper (altough more fragile) edge. I find the balance perfect for me if youre looking for something more blade heavy try japanese style knives, more handle heavy get a Dick or a henckels cermax. Also stick with a fine cut steel for this knife.

Oxo Good Grips Professional 8-Inch Chef Knife Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is an unpretentious, capable tool that is likely to get lost between $5 ginsus and $240 Shuns.It is comfortable to use, has reasonably good steel, and is balanced well.It is a good using knife and the attractive price just sweetens the deal.Do the math--a solid tool for $20 something, or a bit more weight and marketing for $120 to $240.

I am a bit of a tool nut, and I own German Wusthoff, French Sabatier and Calphalon knives made with German steel.They are fine knives, but let's face it, they can't do anything the good grips knife can't.Yes, a bit more weight comes in handy when you're doing serious chopping for hours on end, but I try to avoid that.I also favor a 10" cooks knife, but most opt for the 8" model.This is an ideal primary knife for a new cook who is ready to go, but too smart to drop a bundle on a brand name.

Rust has not been a concern, but I keep my blades clean.I don't throw them in the dishwasher and I steel them often.
