    Chopping doesn't mean that the slices will be different in size, It's all about how much practise you have with that method...

    ... Rock chop is not the only chopping technique. Tap chopping is faster in most cases.

    She says that the santoku knife is not a chef knife and that it is a utility knife. That's wrong it is a chef knife but it's just an Asian style chef knife.

    She is misinformed on certain aspects. For example chopping is a legitimate method of cutting vegetables especially in Asian cuisine. Asian chefs typically use knives that have a little more height to them which gives them more room to guide the knife. Her santoku is not a utility knife. The larger of her pairing knife is closer to that. Honestly no true knife fanatic would probably buy Global knives. But she was correct on one of the most important aspects of knife maintenance that people are typically misinformed on, which is that the honing steel is not for sharpening knives but for straightening out the cutting edge. Unfortunately the angle at which she was sharpening her knife on the stone was too small of an angle for the steel that the knife is made of to handle. At that point she is really "thinning" the blade rather than restoring the edge. Not trolling, just educating.

      I'm a true knife collector and I would definitely buy global knives ok there not cowry x or zdp 189 steal but chroma 18 steal is very easy to sharpen as it's a sofa steal it's around 56 hrc so low compared to others but any knife collector/user will tell you . You need great knives and cheaper knives for the job as well

    • @einundsiebenziger5488
      @einundsiebenziger5488 Před rokem

      The Santoku* knife is the Japanese idea of a utility knife. Traditional Japanese knives are usually specialized. There is e.g. the Deba, made for breaking up whole fish or chicken, or the Yanagiba for slicing boneless protein. The Santoku* is designed to cut everything - fish, meat, vegetables and to appeal to home cooks rather than professionals.

      Arthur Sleep no, chef is more like a range more than "skill level" or "knowledge level". Everyone is a cook, chefs are cooks, sous-chef are cooks, line cooks are cooks. Chef is an overused and often misunderstood word. Ask any decent and good chef, they'll be more than proud of saying that they are cooks.

    @jc-xv2tf Před 3 lety +1

    You do know that Global knives are not meant to use a rocking motion? That is why there is a minimal curve in the tip and very flat to the tang. Rocking motion is for European knives. Global knives and most all Asian inspired knives are for a chopping motion. Oh and by the way, you need to use a wet stone before you start the day and thus no honing needed. Do your research for knives, European and Asian knives are not the same and are not sharpened or honed at the same angle.
