A Real Steak Knife Makes a *REAL* Difference! (PHOTOS)
Being an RFDer, I'm pretty price-conscious and try to avoid expenses on flashy but unnecessary stuff. I also love to cook and eat steak, so I took a risk here and got myself a real steak knife.
Previously, I was using this Brazilian-made knife, which was decent, but until now I never experienced that joy that is cutting and eating steak carved with a true high-quality implement. I picked up a Wusthof 4068 knife and I've been greatly impressed.
The key thing is that this knife is ultra-sharp and therefore can cut much finer / thinner slices of meat versus the hacksaw action from my old Brazilian knife. Really, it's like "a knife through butter!"
This allows the steaks to be enjoyed through many more morsels, and the smaller pieces are also much easier to chew and enjoy all the drippy juices and flavour.
If you enjoy steak as much as I do, I strongly suggest you invest in a good steak knife as it does have a real effect on the culinary enjoyment.

It cuts through both the meat and fat extremely easily:
