America's Test Kitchen

America's Test Kitchen

It’s a dangerous task, but somebody has to do it. Test Cook Tai Sierra compares the levels of magnetism of different knives.


this looks a good test for me, especially since im standing under those knives all day.

the real test is the magnets that are used in the Wall Mount Knife Holders

we have found the magnets used in the epicurean models superior and they dont scratch the knives ;)

Happy Holidays to all and a Healthy New Year !

Wow its been a long time since i blogged something

Well i have been very busy these last few weeks so i have alot to blog about!
I should have kept up with all this mobile technology i carry around with me, but alas its still takes energy
Lets start with my knife tour to Japan sponsored by Kikuichi  Company .

Over 700 years of solid and reputable history of cutlery making distinguish Kikuichi from all other cutlery companies in the world. Although Kikuichi has been producing superior cutlery for more than a hundred fifty years, the origins of the company spans back some seven hundred years ago. For the most of the company’s history, Kikuichi manufactured fine Samurai swords that bore the emperor’s Chrysanthemum symbol as a mark of their excellence. Today, Kikuichi’s ancestor’s swords are considered national treasures in Japan. 

The Master of the Forge 

I have to give it to Kikuichi for promoting a fascinating tour! 

They went all out to provide us with

so many interesting aspects of the japanese knife market and culture.

The knife making alone was worth the trip 6760 miles. 

As you can see in the photos it was a hands on experience. Every vendor built a japanese style knife from scratch,a piece of iron!

We started at the forge to melt and pound out a japanese piece of iron.

My pounded piece of Japanese steel.

It took us 2 days to create a knife.

Sharp as a razor! This guy is the top grinder in Japan
