Random Thoughts.....What are you thinking?
Time to be a responsible adult and buy things for the apartment instead of steam games and pc hardware :<

All right, enough fruitless crafting for the day!
Looking at that, it makes me wonder how XIV 1.0 was even ambitious enough to believe that they wanted to forgo auto-attack. I mean... wtf.
We had it later on though

Still trying to decide if I should drop the $23 premium to get this over this I'm sure both are fine, but forged blades tend to be of higher quality and better balanced. But to an average joe like me, a knife is a knife as long as it's sharp and cuts my food. Plus that dark cherry wood block is quite sexy. >wish Kali happy Easter
>Kali doesn't respond >Kali is mean. Confirmed. :( ...I have messages?
Second one looks better imo
I'd get the bottom one due to all of them having grips. I have some of those all metal knifes. Pain in the *** totally not worth it.
Bismarck.Dracondria said: » Second one looks better imo I like how minimalistic it is and the block color, but strangely it's cheaper and supposedly inferior to the top one which has forged blades, and the walnut colored block is meh too. Like I said, a knife is a knife to me as long as it cuts, so I'll probably go with the cheaper sexier one and be perfectly content. Just have to give em care and clean/dry em when done with use so they don't rust or dull on me. Asura.Ackeronll said: » I'd get the bottom one due to all of them having grips.

I wonder if that was a choice of compromise for price or looks. Artemicion said: » Not that there is anything wrong with buying things in bulk, but... I just like to know that every piece is of good quality. I personally would buy each piece individually. Kalila said: » ...I have messages? >Kali is mean and oblivious to her meanness.

I personally would buy each piece individually. This would be the best choice, but alas, buying quality forged knives is looking to be $30-40 a knife, which just isn't pragmatic for my bachelor lifestyle. I think I'll get the cheap block as a starter kit and see where it takes me. It should be worth the price of admission, and if my demands increase I'll take your suggested route.

I only bought a block after doing that, and I take great care of my knives. They aren't all from the same company and they don't all match, but at least I know that each one is good and I know how to use each piece well. Unless you cook super fancy and complicated things I would just get the block knives, you can just sharpen them whenever they get a bit dull lol. You're not some professional chef >.>

Where should I go for lunch today huh?

Yes, but that block set is also 60 dollars. Individual quality knives for what you need now is cheaper and will last you longer in the long run.
Eh, the dilemma is I'm not as much a cook as I'd like to be, and I'm not really sure what pieces are necessary for my (minimalistic) needs. Hence the concept behind this catch-all block set.
I rather just cheaply cover all my bases and get a better understanding of what works best for what and move onto higher grade pieces from there. |
