Just got the new paring knife I ordered, nice damn knife! It's a Dalstrong - Gladiator Series, high carbon German steel, 3.75" blade, 55 Rockwell hardness, and sharp as freakin' hell! I love it. The wife says she can finally understand me spending money on knives, she's never really got the whole collecting thing with me and knives but, if she can see the use it's another story. lol Never really cared a hell of a lot about kitchen knives until recently, I always got by on what we had for cheap shit but, since I've been eating a lot of fruit I want a nice knife for cutting it up.
