Mayor ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I like the way the gently curved blade rocks on the cutting board.
If the blade is curved enough to rock back and forth, it's not a real santoku, it's a santoku-style chef's knife. Santoku blades are tapered, but almost entirely flat on the sharp side (like a cleaver).
ION, I am having a completely shitty day. If anything else goes wrong, I quit. I will retreat to my cave and come out when things stop sucking.
(I'd go into specifics, but most of them are job-related & therefore unsuitable for public posting. Suffice to say, everything can BITE ME.)
Huh. Ours are kind of a cross between the two. They're definitely more santoku shaped, but with a slight curve to the blade. Though there was less of a curve than I was remembering, I just checked. The curve is mostly toward the tip (but still there).
No shitty days for Mama Jess. I'll hurt somebody if I have to.
SEANY!!!
AIMS!!!!!
And yes - no more shitty days for Jess. BOO SHITTY DAYS!!
Seany - I miss you. Little Liz and I were gonna drunk dial you a few weeks back, but then I had to go sing.
I miss you too. And you totally should have called me while drunk.
Also, for the record, about half of everything S talks about these days is how to get you and Joe back to LA.
I think she misses y'all more than I do. She talks about it a LOT.

Sorry, punkin.
If I need the rocking action, I'll switch over to my ulu knife. I love that thing with an unholy passion. It's so useful! And fast! Chop chop chop, mince mince mince! Whee!
Ahem.
I do use my chef's knife, but the chopping of things into bits is best done with the ulu.
