Personally, I think ceramic is a little too niche for its price. I'd be afraid to do anything I think might break it but thats a problem with any knife you pay over 80 bucks for. Ceramic is great for things you mentioned but its also brittle whereas steel bends. The most useful kitchen knives usually end up being the…

Yea, the season of the witch was wack.

THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO SEE. I want to see Navy Seals with fuckin' UV machine guns clad in silver chainmail take some of these asshole vampires out!

He had no choice, woman was dead either way. At that point you have to look out for yourself, Salome is waaay older than bill and could probably kill him then and there.

This vampire plan is just....not very well thought out at all. I mean, when people thought they were just myths maybe they could've gone on a reign of terror but living in the open they're really exposed to organized human beings. First, they can't enter homes uninvited to people can just hole up at night, surround…

interesting.

As to power outages most systems work off of batteries and last a really long time off some AA's.

Man, Ive scoured the internet to find out what you mean but I cant find anything. Self sharpen?Please elaborate. I will concede that ceramic knives retain their edge far longer than steel. However, ceramic knives are far from all-purpose and I wouldn't use one for anything to do with hard food(frozen, bones etc).

true, but debate is important. Only way to hash these things out.

You bring up interesting points John.

I dunno, ceramic is kind of gimmicky to me. I won't deny its usefulness and its incredible sharpness but they are a little more maintenance than regular knives, ie you need special ceramic sharpening steel or send them back to the manufacturer. In a professional setting I would not use them, I like my Japanese…

Also great knives. Used to own a 8 inch chef knife from them straight out of culinary school. Cool design but very expensive, much like shun. Also, indisputably sharp. I wasn't ready to wield one when i first entered the biz and like a total rook, snapped the point clear off trying to pry two stacks of frozen lobster…

Forschners are awesome knives, perfect compromise between price and quality. Japanese steel is on a different level but Forschners are endlessly practical. I commend your choice, Joe.

As a pro, i gotta name drop my Misono UX10 as the best thing Ive ever bought.

Its not easier than stainless steel. Ceramic knives are a little more complicated to maintain plus they can be brittle and snap. Though i will admit, plenty of home cooks like em.

Or alternatively we could've overlooked something and it turns out the universe will be torn asunder next week.

Man, I wish I had been there when Enyart blew out a long wispy tendril of smoke, put out his cigarette, took off his sunglasses and looked Stephen Hawking in the face for a good goddamn second before replying "What universe muthafucka?". THE EGG ON HAWKINGS FACE OMG
