I promised to test a Chef’s knife from Popular creator Binging With Babish Andrew Rea
It’s a 7.5 inches stainless steel CLEF KNIFE Chef's knife + Cleaver = Clef
It's an extremely sharp knife
I don’t use knives like the chef’s in the kitchen, but I put very little effort to cut fruits, garnishes, and citrus zest and ice diamonds, cubes

@Sir-Reborn 6 ай бұрын

Yup, that and (on the opposite end of the spectrum) how tough it is. Knives with high hardness will be more brittle and increasingly more prone to chips or cracks. They'll take longer to sharpen, but will hold that edge a long time. Super nice to have as a general knife for somewhat more delicate work Toughness is kind-of its opposite, where instead of chipping or breaking off, the edge gets "rolled" because of the softer metal. Tends to be better for any "rough" work like cleavers, chopping meat/bone, or hard fruits like pinapple or watermelon. Balancing the two comes from various forging teqniques (double tempering, powder metallurgy, oil quenching, austenitizing, etc) which is also where the price comes from, but generally the more extreme price-ends lean towards knives with higher HRC.

I think edge retention is bit over hyped. Average person cooking sometimes bit in home doesnt really need that much edge retention since they are not cutting all day long like chef. Obviously you wont get amazing steel for 20, but you might get usable knife. Softer knives are easier to hone, and sharpen so even they have kinda benefits. Thats why people who use their knives insane amounts on hard work actually tend to use cheaper knives butchers for example well they also ran through their knives fast so wouldnt even be economical to have expensive knife.

Looked into it, it’s made from 1.4116, which is a solid budget steel. It is a high carbon stainless so it should be pretty corrosion resistant. If it is heat treated right that knife could actually be good value for $20. Also no knife holds an edge forever. The factory edge will wear away eventually so you will need to re-sharpen it to get the edge back.

For the sake of all the skeptics, I did a little untrustworthy research (so take it as you will) to figure out how good it is at face value. The knife is advertised to be made from high carbon 1.4116 stainless steel which is ideal for chef knives as I couldn't get an exact measure as to how strong that is, there are good comparations. most articles and forums I found are comparing that alloy to 420HC. Which doing a little more unreliable research shows that 420HC is one of the "cheaper" but still a very reliable alloy that is used in many applications such as machetes, chef knives, balisongs and even swords. TLDR : $20 for a decent all around knife what will require sharpening not horribly often is up to you on how worth. Maybe I'll pick one up and let everyone know in the future.

Most knives are great right out of the box because they haven't been dulled yet. The sign of quality is how well it holds its edge. That knife may be a bargain at $20, but I'm betting anything over $50 blows it out of the water for longevity.

I’ve actually had this knife for a bit now, and I use it consistently. It hasn’t lost much of its edge at all, and I was able to fix up any dullness with an Angle Set Sharpener super quickly. It’s an amazing quality knife.

@presidentjoethudbrandon7074 2 жыл бұрын

I have cheap knives I got from Amazon ($10ish each) that all are just as sharp. It's about maintaining the edge more than anything else. Get a honing steel and give it a few passes between uses. Every professional chef or butcher does the same thing and nothing stays sharp if you don't maintain it.

@dr.JackieBright Жыл бұрын

The real question isn't how well does it cut right out of the box. It's actually "what grade of steel is used in its construction?" That'll help determine its edge retention and corrosion resistance. No matter the answer, it can't be as bad as Kamikoto knives, since babish is only selling his for $20.

I had the same experience, I have the cleft and santoku babish knives and they are far sharper than any of my other knives and require almost no effort to use. They easily glide through a cooked steak first pass and have kept that edge. They are still far sharper after months of every day use than a brand new knife I was given on Christmas.

I’ve never understood why the initial sharpness of a knife is such a huge make-or-break selling point when it’s common knowledge that no blade put to regular use will stay sharp for long, you have to resharpen it yourself. With that said, how sharp it is out of the box will only really effect your first couple uses, then it’ll just be however sharp you can make it yourself
