    I have a cheap set I don’t love. I got it when I was setting up my apartment 18 months ago and had to buy a lot of stuff quickly. I keep meaning to upgrade them one by one but never get around to it.

    You could do a lot worse than Enowo, and they are very inexpensive for the quality. Just got my steak knives this morning. I was not aware that the set, $18, also included a serving fork and a carving knife along with 4 steak knives.

    Take a look at the link below. There are several options, all very inexpensive, but very good quality.

      Mik - I ordered two Rada knives yesterday. The tomato slicer and the paring knife

        You may or may not like the paring knife. I find the handle a bit small.

          They’re so cheap if I end up replacing it it won’t be a big deal.

            You will love the tomato knife, especially if, like me, you live on tomato sandwiches in the summer. Their grapefruit knife is great too.

            I think this week's task is culling the herd in the knife drawer. Just no room for anything new.

              RADA also makes a pretty handy little knife sharpener.

                Yup. I posted a "project farm" video looking at knife sharpeners. Based on his recommendation, I bought one. It's great.

                The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                  We got a guy who comes once a month to the local farmers market who sharpens knives on the spot.

                    If you can't sharpen a knife, we're gonna revoke your Man Card.

                      I have a Henkel sharpener - zip, zap, done. Puts a nice edge on.
