    Kiwi Knives

    After trying to filet a Sockeye Salmon at my parents house at Christmas with what my dear mom calls a knife, I told her I would get her some. I kinda forgot about that until listening to a BBQ Podcast where one of the guests had ordered a couple of Kiwi Knives to test and was very impressed at how inexpensive they were & how razor sharp they were. I thought *** MOM ***
    If they will cut better than the free knives that she got voting for Nixon, Count me in... So I checked out the website & was amazed at the prices, so I also ordered myself a couple. 4 new knives, including shipping was less than $20 and they confirmed shipping within a couple of hours. The guest on the BBQ show did note that they were much lighter than conventional knives with thinner blades, but were very sharp. I will update this when I get them. Here's the link. Might be worth a look?

      A word of caution: My old man used to sharpen my Mom's parents knives- and invariably one of them would cut themselves with the new edge, WARN THEM they are sharp

        must be made from parong/machete metal.

        We tend to forget that tropical countries like thailand have a very long history of producing long lasting sharp edges for their daily walk to work through the jungle :-)

        bit of an extreme chisel edge on them - going by the picture (machete sharpening for sure lol).
        But you can smooth that out over time.

          Interesting. Got it covered now but everone needs another knock about knife so at that price may be a great deal. Will be watching for the review.

            Great point Rich, I had planned on it, especially after using her "cutlery"...LOL.. Ordered the pairing, and the other looks like a santoku with the point.

              That is so true. my poor mom and her knives. I could not stand them so dull when visiting. and she would always ask me to sharpen them. then I would see her with bandages on her fingers and hands. poor mom.

              heck of a deal on the knives. and the best part is they say for some reason they stay sharp for long time in the ad. how cool is that.lol. I wish my knives would stay sharp for a long time.

                  Another thing the guest mentioned was something like: They are like razor blades with handles... Which might not really be what my 70 Y/O mom needs... And the stay sharp for a long time comments also were interesting. I am used to big, thick heavy hulking knives (Wusthof and Henckels) So I'm excited to try them out and compare.

                      Knives just came in today. Here in 3 business days!.... They definately have a way different feel than the Wusthof & Henckel's I have. I only tested them on a piece of sausage & a piece of paper, pretty light weight, but VERY sharp! & seem to be made pretty well for inexpensive knives..... They even sent me an extendable back scratcher?

                        Just the ass scratcher alone is worth what you paid.
