So I'm a huge fan of the show Top Chef and Sheldon Simeon was one of my favorites. I now follow him on Instagram and noticed that he was gifted some knives. They look really cool and was thinking about purchasing one or some. I was curious to see if any of you fine folks have used them before.

Those look nice and price seems low. You have to be committed to take care of these, they will develop patinas and you have to immediately wash and dry them or they'll rust.

Kurouchi finish eventually wears off. In case that's important.

I am a big fan of carbon steel with stainless steel cladding. Pricey, but really the best of both worlds.

More frequently you see a VG10 clad in SS, but I just got a knife with carbon steel in the core.alaskanassasin said:

that line is where the outside ss cladding ends and the carbon steel begins. No matter how hard you try, a patina will develop....adds character. That said, many of those knives are some kind of stainless so not a problem.

I have multiple high carbon knives and have had no issues at all. I wouldn’t leave them just sitting out wet for hours but I will cut stuff up and get dinner going then wash and dry them and you are fine.

This one is around 8 years old with a good amount of use. Never seen rust on it.
