A decade or so ago I purchased a whole flock of F. Dick knives as I went into culinary school. Without a doubt that was probably one of the best investments I EVER made! Hands down. F. Dick markets to culinary students & schools for two very good reasons: 1) They then don't need to spend a fortune in advertising, trying to get housewives & wannabees to buy their knives...just to show off the new toy to their friends & neighbours. (Or brag about how much they spent.) 2) They're darn near bullet-proof...and thus perfect for students, working chefs or home users that aren't going to sharpen their knives every couple months.
I purchased my "regular" 9" before I had seen the Competition Knife...and being a student had to go without.
Well, seeing as I've have NOTHING but high praise for their knives I decided to finally get the competition knife. Have I used it in a competition..? No... But, along with being another OUTSTANDING F. Dick knife it really is a very cool conversation piece. My wife & I have a lot of "foody" friends and this still is the most popular piece of equipment that we have in out kitchen...and we have a LOT O' TOYS in our well stocked kitchen. It seems that everybody want to test their skills with it. ROFL (And it's still less than some of the advertised brands...)
Oh, and for the record... Nobody, and I mean NOBODY makes a steel as good as F. Dick. Go ahead, do a search or better yet ask somebody that knows what they're talking about. They're worth their weight in gold!
