Enjoy the knife and remember only trim the raw and or cooked stuff, keep the live, blood is still flowing parts out of the way. Have a couple of Victorinox knives, work just fine.Delta B.C. - Whiskey and steak, because no good story ever started with someone having a salad!

That's a good knife. I have the same one along with many that cost much more. I reach for that one more times than not.Be careful, man! I've got a beverage here.

Where did you buy it for $25? I paid $50. I guess should have looked around more.XL, WSM, Coleman Road Trip Gas GrillKansas City, Mo. -
I just seen I could have saved money buy buying it on Amazon, but I bought it at my Egg Dealer, so feel like I am keeping them in business and if issues I can go back to them. I may buy sharpener on Amazon to save money, any thoughts on what I can get?XL, WSM, Coleman Road Trip Gas GrillKansas City, Mo.

Work Sharp Ken Onion Edition. Search on Amazon, you will find it. Just order it, don't think about it. You will be sharpening everything that has an edge once you get it. Your crappy dull knives work great after a minute or so.Ladeback69 said:I just seen I could have saved money buy buying it on Amazon, but I bought it at my Egg Dealer, so feel like I am keeping them in business and if issues I can go back to them.

The wife would kill me with my new knife if i spent that much on a sharpener. I think I will wait tell I use it a little and see what i can sell her on. Right now I am more interested in the food saver sealer. I like the V4800, because i want to be able to marinade with it to. An my Sam's Club has it in stock. Thanks for the advice though. Boy the toy list just keeps growing with the BGE, doesn't it?XL, WSM, Coleman Road Trip Gas GrillKansas City, Mo. -
