    Holy fuck, moths. Like 20 on my window. Good day spring!

    And J, you can get by with much cheaper knives. I bought exclusively based on fit. The MAC is cheaper. There is a price point worth stepping into though. Below that restaurant depot knives win.

    Blew my only 35a fuse too, lol. None in town. Doubt I'll stress a 30a though.

    I lied on the thermal noise, there is some but it isn't audible unless you are in the near field or the engine is off.

    I think mine was around $300-400. Online in that grade of steel it is around $900. This may have changed though. Sort of an old school family as they've been doing it that for a LONG time.

    ALL, not some, not most but all. Of course, the best woofer in the worst box will be worse than the worst woofer in the best box.

    I wish the MAC 10" fit my hand better. I love the way it is balanced and how it works with me, but it doesn't feel solid in my hands.

    I had the 2nd guy from the left in the top pic make me a custom sashimi knife for slicing towards me. http://www.mtckitchen.com/t-aboutourknifebrands.aspx Looks like this, but with 2 grades higher of steel: http://www.mtckitchen.com/popup.aspx?src=/images/product/large/90259_1_.jpg The other knife that fits me really well which I use for slicing away from me or down is this: Both are 10", you'd be better off starting with something in the 8" range as you have to be either extremely agile or just down right big to need it. I have a 12" F Dick too for when I want to get all nasty on some shit, but that was a gift. The other two blades account for at least 95% of my prep work. Maybe more.

    Hung is a little bit faster than me, but is definitely significantly more accurate. He uses really strange knives though. I am also mostly reliant on two knives for 99.9% of my work.

    I could probably do three whole onions as fast as Gordon does one half even if you delete the commentary. He is going REALLY slow...but that is for the sake of the video.

    If I got yours in a restaurant I'd be pissed and I'd be in Detroit.

    Because I am a dick: You can avoid the top cutting if you do the other diagonal, it's faster then and safer but this is easier: As for the chili, you forgot the chile. Chili powder is fucking retarded. Read the ingredients. Two major portions are cumin & peppers NEITHER should ever be used more than a few days from their whole state. Even better if you can do it in hours. Both also require a pre-roast before cooking. Throw the store bought BS away. Now the burger. Your pan was NOWHERE near hot enough. You burn your steaks, but are afraid to cook burger? For instance, when done browning dump the meat into another container. When you look at the pan and go OH SHIT I've got 3 hours of scrubbing to do you've got it about right. Now deglaze that pan with a liquid. For what you made I like beer. Homemade stock is never a bad choice. If you didn't season (ie salt) your hamburger and EVERY layer of the chili you failed. Cheese. Grate your own from something real, you lazy bastard. Looks to me like you also fucked up on the tomatoes. Find the cheapest big can of San Marzano's you can find. Seriously. And lastly, stop buying fake ass hot dogs. You just got part of a cow, why the fuck didn't you turn some of the less savory parts into hot dogs. Great use for ground beast. And yes, I have problems with garbage fast food - the way I "helped" it would be far from that.
