I've been waiting...the knives have arrived!

WWSis · November 2010

I'm so excited! :woohoo: :silly: Mr. FedEx delivered these a short while ago! Although the manufacturer of these knives is probably five hours away, I ordered them from Knife Merchant (in San Diego

) to save about $60 from buying them from the manufacturer; saved about $80 if I had purchased them at the place I tested'em out. The are Lamson Sharp "Fire". I bought them because 1) I loved the feel, 2) they are made in the U.S., 3) they have life-time sharpening, and 4) they are pretty! Maybe not in that exact order!! :silly: :lol: :woohoo:
I got a magnet block for them and my hubby has put it up already!

Here's a close-up of the pretty handle! Looks like a bowling ball!

Slick.They heavy?

Buster Dog BBQ · November 2010

Love the handle. You're key statement " I loved the feel ". So many people buy whole sets of knives and never use 1/2 of the set because of feel or it's not needed. I like to purchase individual knives based on need and feel, feel being number one. And you can find great deals on the web. Congrats.

Julia, those are gorgeous! I am pea green, like my knives but don't love them. Have fun using them.

Mr Holloway · November 2010

Those are some beautiful looking knives

WWSis · November 2010

Compared to: shun, slightly heavier; wusthof, about the same; global, quite a bit heavier, but the globals I thought were exceptionally light.

WWSis · November 2010

Buster, Thanks, and yea, it was a bummer waiting a week for the shipping, but definately worth the savings!

cookn biker · November 2010

Very nice Julia!! What size chef is that? Looks like a 10".I also have the magnet and love it!
What's the first meal they will make?

WWSis · November 2010

Teresa, thanks;

Time and testing will tell the depth of my love! :silly: :lol:

WWSis · November 2010

Molly, it's an 8" chef, 7" santoku, 3.5" parer and 6" utility... Probably only want a couple more, but will have to save up! Maybe a stir-fry? Lots o'chopping!

WWSis · November 2010

Mr. Holloway, thanks! So long as I don't drop one on my foot, we'll be all set!

Beli · November 2010

Florida Grillin Girl · November 2010

Congrats, nothing better than new toys

BobS · November 2010

Nice. I have to go look for those on the internet.

thirdeye · November 2010

Those look really nice. Please explain the lifetime sharpening.... How often can you send them in? I would suspect that you are responsible for the postage/shipping costs??

eenie meenie · November 2010

Julia, you're going to have a great time with your new knives! They are a work of art.

I'm sure you'll be doing this in no time flat:

Howdy, Stranger!
