Steaks and more. Just got this badass Chinese slicing cleaver. It's very sharp and high quality. I feel like Chen Kenichi and shit.

This was $56 on AliExpress by the way. I highly recommend it for that price. It handles like some $200 cleavers I've worked with, and looks so much nicer.
I have a $20 one coming too and have no idea what to expect, but this one has far exceeded my expectations.

I don't know. Are you thinking of getting one?
I didn't mention the brand or anything. You could read it off of the knife. I just like sharing good deals when I get them. It's a really well made knife in every way. Great price. I'm probably going to just start using it for everything I used my 8" french knife for for. I worked with a chef many years ago who did everything with a cleaver and a paring size santoku. I didn't get it then but I do now. It feels like you have more control and you certainly have more weight. The other cheaper one I have coming is much thinner I believe. It looks burned and black on the upper blade where it's not honed. Different from this Damascus thick one. If you don't mind waiting 3 weeks you can get stuff for 1/3 the cost of its value. And it's usually 1-2 weeks for most stuff. The one that's coming next (pic rel) was $17.50 actually. If it arrived totally dull it would be worth it. But I'm sure it won't be.
The trolls cannot understand and are wrong about everything as usual.

Looks good man. I'd suggest getting some flakey salt to add right after plating.
What I had last night.

It's incidental. It's caused by the folding and layering of the steel. The wood-like grain in each knife is unique. It's not a design or intentional in any way. It just happens to look awesome on top of it. They're all handmade so each will be a little different.

This is just for that anon who complained last time that my guacamole was brown because I made it with Pace instead of lemon juice. So this time I'm making it bright green with Pace on the side.

let me tell you how you’re a retard. first off, the only reason you think this knife is amazing is because you’re psychologically compensating for the buyer’s remorse you so obviously have. it’s a bog standard cleaver, whoopdie flippin do.
second, one of the draws of ‘damascus’ steel is it’s edge retention. do you know what you have here? a normal, steel core with a jacket of damascus. you might as well have just bought a normal steel cleaver, the only purpose the extra material on this one serves is vanity.
third, knife collecting, and I can’t stress this enough, is a hobby for absolute faggots. complete and utter fairies. poofters of the highest order. my god what a fruitcake you are.

You mean my "plastic" pan? haha
Yes, I love it. From seared steaks to delicate omelettes and crepes. It serves me well.
>>21865773
haha, what a post. Where are you seeing remorse? It was a smoking deal and I just ordered another two at this price for Christmas gifts for next year.

It's a titanium T-fal. You're stupid. And I have a few decades of practice. I still appreciate a very sharp knife right out of the box. I'm not sure what crawled up your ass this morning, but take it out on someone else.
>>21865839
But it's not shit, troll. It's full tang folded steel hand made. Fuck off. And you still haven't posted your kitchen or cooked me anything. I don't respect you.

No, it's NOT plastic and aluminum, it's layered, coated titanium. There's no fucking teflon melted over it that will EVER flake off. You're conflating completely different types of pans. I have plenty of cast iron and stainless steel that I posted four threads ago. I use them when it's appropriate. I use my T-fal for most things because it's small batch and it's versatile. But you just stubbornly keep assuming it's some shitty pan that's going to cause cancer or something. Fuck off, dimbulb.

Some of them are. Some are 6mm thick at the top and sharpened at a different angle on the blade, and swung like a hatchet. Others are more for everything else that doesn't require a narrow blade. In French classical cooking we're taught to leave that blunt cleaver for hacking apart chickens, but Asian chefs use them for almost everything.
I remember Iron Chef Hiroyuki Sakai could peel apples lightning fast with his slicing cleaver twisting them like he was "turning" mushrooms.

>>21865289
it's called a chinese chef's knife, it's not a cleaver, also you got one with the damascus meme swirls and the gaijin handle. way to fuck up, you coulda gotten a kiwi for 15 bucks and it would have held its edge longer than that piece of shit you bought
