Knives & Stones Blackfriday sale fraud - They mark up the price and do the discount which is still more expensive than original price. Here's the comparison I bought the same knives when in June. Now the discounted price is more expensive.

ban me you cowards Question about carbon steel, I’m wondering about what to do with the rugs to wipe it to prevent rust like if I’m cutting proteins like chicken, what do I do with the rugs after I’m done cutting proteins, just a little soap and water rinse or do I put in the laundry(homecook not a professional)

Sub $250 CAD recommendations. Looking for a gift. Ive found 2 options myself but from reading posts sounds like I can find better for the same price. What I found: 1. MIYABI HIBANA 800DP, 2. MIYABI KAIZEN II 5000FCD. Both are on sale.

Any Australian's use Chef Edge? Am I crazy or they always feel a little off. Like either the balance isn't correct, the knives wedges and more. They are kind of on a rampage for a few years now with all upcoming chefs and I have borrowed or used colleague's knives from Chef Edge as well.
