Should of gotten that anvil

/ck/ generally recommends stuff like Tojiro.

How comfortable a knife is and how you care for it is generally more important than the brand.

>>7981792
ginsu my nigga

>>7981792
A jackknife

1) cheapest ceramic knife with a sheath you can find
2) cheapest steel knife you can find

Now you can literally cut everything the best way possible. Brand knives = meme knives

>>7981792
NO JACK.

You've summoned Ja/ck/

>muh 9,000,000 folded times
>muh weeb steel
I use a $9 ikea knife and I buy a new one when it gets dull. At this rate I'll steel be ahead of the weebs in 300 years, long after they've committed seppuku after realizing anime isn't real

I like ceramic chef knives because they are reasonably priced, sharp, and don't need maintenance. If you need paring, serrated or flexible knives you have to go with steel but you can go cheaper with those types of knives anyway.

So for me, 7-8" ceramic knife with good reviews for general everything and a cheap pairing, serrated, and fillet knife that you can replace when it gets dull because fuck you and you constant knife honing bullshit.

>>7981792
Global makes good entry level knives.

>>7982104
they eventually need maintenance too.. and where do you go then?

>>7982110
You don't maintain a ceramic knife, you just don't use it on thick bone or hard surface and chip it in any way.

The other knives you can buy for like 5 dollars sharpened to fuck at walmart and they are so rarely used at home that it will take a good year or two of regular cooking to need replacing.

If you are in a professional kitchen your employer will have good knives already bought for you.

>>7981924

>Jacked

I'm also part of the IKEA crowd, with a cheap two slots sharpener

>>7982156
>he didn't pull the blade out first before dumping that stuff in
God dammit, Jack can you do ANYTHING without fucking up?

>>7982085
Stay obsessed, Achmed

watch out, king jack coming through

>>7982419
kek, haven't seen this one before

Hardness matters more than brand. A hard steel knife will keep an edge longer, but is prone to chipping. A softer steel knife won't chip much, but will need to be sharpened more often.

Buy a good sharpening stone.

>>7982402
I fucking hate the way he eyefucks the camera

>>7982122

>If you are in a professional kitchen your employer will have good knives already bought for you.

Hahahaha. No they don't faget.

>>7982402

...why not just slice it like a normal person with one knife. What did 2 knives do?

Sabatier. Best starter knifes, and good price for what you get. Everything else is a meme knife

What knives are best for beheading Palestinians?

>>7982285
i've always wondered, when he ends up cooking shit like this that is so ridiculously undercooked, does he actually end up eating it? i mean, can't he tell what a burger is and isn't supposed to taste like?

>>7983193

>>7983200
He probably never ate that though. IF you watch the video until the end he does what he never does which is eat it, and pretend to talk with his mouth full, then at almost the last second he covers his mouth and laughs out the side like he's gonna spit it out.

>>7983357
Name of the video pls

Dollar store knives. Just get a bunch and use them till their dull and then get them all sharpened at the same time.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J47pL_BW8TQ>>7983372

>>7981792
Knives are overrated OP. You can buy decent ones for cheap, honestly.

Spending a fortune on a knife is retarded, it definitely won't make you a better cook.

>>7982285

>cheese isnt melted
>meat is fucking raw
>knife juts crushes its way through the burger

>>7983200
That can't be serious.

>>7982122
>Truly professional culinary position
>Kitchen provides knife kits.

This has to be trolling

Can someone make a webm of the one where he does the poutine redo and at the end fucks up horribly cutting up a potato?

>>7983462

>>7983533
When he puts it in the cold oil...

>>7983539

>>7983604
what a fucking pussy

>>7981792
I thought that was a human face he was slicing in the thumbnail.

he's such a fuck up,it's amazing

>>7983604
that actually really pisses me off
i wanna grab his head and push his face into it

>>7983604
Why didn't he just use the fucking spoon to lower it in?

>>7981792
Rose handle victorinox are about the best bang for your buck here.

>>7982105
You best be kidding. After working with a set of globals for over 10 years I would not recommend.

The back of the blade is too sharp and will give blisters to un-calloused hands if they have to use them for heavyish work like peeling a lot of pumpkin.

The steel is too hard and that makes them hard to sharpen on a stone, unless you know what you are doing, and even then it is a chore.

3 or 4/10 knives would not recommend, would not buy again.

Except for the vegetable santoku, that really is a dream to use.

>>7982122
Have you been in a kitchen? Lmao

>>7983642

>>7983604
He doesn't even know that if you lay food in hot oil away from you, ie with the lowest part toward yourself, the other way than he does it, any splashes are likewise going to go away from you?

This isn't even funny, it is bad practice and if enough people do it like this someone will get burned.

>>7983507
Seconded

Please do this

>>7983686

Enjoy senpai

>>7983718
Just cut it in half first jack, jesus christ man

>>7983718
thank you so much I love you anon

>>7983731
how the fuck is he getting flare-ups with Grill Grates? does his incompetence know any bounds?

>obligatory phone in the meat tray callout

>>7983670
half the time i think this guy has cerebral palsy

but now i think he's just retarded. what the fuck? who doesnt know how to open a fucking beer?

>>7983779

>>7983814
some men just want to see the food burn

>>7983814
>>7983812
>>7983779

Reminder that Ja/ck/ had pink eye for over 2 weeks

>>7983812
He's clearly only drinks megabrewery stuff. Almost all Anheuser-Busch bottles have screw off tops.

>>7983828
then he proceeds to pour cayenne pepper into his eyes

>>7983828
JYAKKU

Damn.. after watching all these videos, I'm starting to feel sorry for the guy.

>>7983723
It would have sufficed to cut off one end and place the potato on a wet kitchen cloth.

>>7981792
The IKEA all-steel knives with the black grooves in the handle are actually not bad. Also, the Wüsthof Silverpoint series is much underappreciated. IMHO they have a nicer blade profile and a nicer blade geometry than the Victorinoxes. They are especially well suited for people who have smaller hands and/or don't like the bulky fibrox handles.

>>7983814
The phone in the used meat package always gets me.

>>7983200
>>7981945
Why does he eat burgers like that?

How is he completely unable to do anything right?

Ppppppppp

Its super cool

I use a Katana and a Wakizashi to slice Japanese beef for my Japanese food.

From my experience, a $5 Kiwi brand knife and a piece of smooth slate that's been flattened by one of those $2 200/400 grit blocks for sharpening will do most things in a home kitchen with ease.

>>7984261

I mean, it looks... did Jack make something EDIBLE!?

I'm laughing in the outside but inside I'm fucking dying. How can one human being be such a complete and utter fuck up?

>>7983718
>>7984618
Does jack review shitty unitaskers or does he actually regularly use these as kitchen tools?

>>7984640
He reviews them, but every SINGLE time he unpackages one he says "we're gonna do this the guy way" and tosses away the instructions. The first time he tried a melon cutter he held it backwards, then the comments lit him up and he re-did it (which you see in the webm) and cut his finger because he's fucking stupid.

I had Victorinox knives recommended to me here a while back. I picked up a Victorinox Chefs knife with riveted wood handle and it has been a great knife. They come super sharp and I would buy it again for the $45 I spent.

>>7984639
I hate the ways he breaks eggs
I bet he thinks he's so cool

I was thinking about getting my first half way decent chef's knife but I'm not sure what length I should buy. Any suggestions?

>>7983166
a spoon

>>7981792
I think it's so funny that he leaves this footage in. He is a shamelessly terrible cook.

>>7983419

>>7982122
>If you are in a professional kitchen your employer will have good knives already bought for you.

more like shitty beat house knives. poor, poor neglected knives.

wusthof classic if you have money
if youre a poor pleb, an electric sharpener and any knife with a solid tang.

Nice stealthy Ja/ck/ thread, lads

>>7985879

Go, literally, fuck your own face.

Go back to /tv/ with these shittube "celebrities."

>>7985950
Be my friend and hook me up with all of them, possibly put them in a zip for me too.

>>7985964
your suggestion has been noted and denied.
