This site will give you the confidence to choose and use the knives and other nonelectric sharp tools in your kitchen. It’s also a reference site that you can use as you improve your skills and acquire the tools that will make you a better cook!
Many years ago, it wasn’t unusual for people to get their steak knives from either gas stations or S&H Green Stamps. Gas stations were a popular place to receive the knives as a reward for buying your gas for 25 cents per gallon. For many decades, S&H Green Stamps were the equivalent of credit card rewards points. Both of these knife sources highlight how unimportant steak knives were for many years. They were an afterthought in most homes.
However, steak knives have long been available everywhere knives are sold. From big-box stores to specialty shops, you can spend between $15 and $250 for four knives. If a lower-cost sharp steak knife can’t easily cut your steak, you have two choices: more-expensive knives, or better-quality steak. My recommendation would be to upgrade your steak selection.
A knife does not know who is its master.
God made hands before knives.

Fear tastes like a rusty knife and do not let her into your house.
Surgeons must be very careful. When they take the knife!, underneath their fine incisions, stirs the Culprit — Life!
