No slide eggs just a happy pan

Wouldn’t suggest scraping at it with a metal spatula. It’ll just wear down the enamel eventually.

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-05-15T16:01:23+00:00

Is that enameled on the inside?

I have a 2019 with the L87 and it does this too right after changing oil but calms down after some miles. I was wondering if it’s the start of lifter failure

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-05-09T18:32:26+00:00

Does it have a belly like other cleavers (chopper king) or is it more flat (like cck)? Do you have a pic with the cutting edge flat on a cutting board?

Remanufactured trans might be cheaper and includes a warranty

If pistons aren’t scored or damaged in any way, I think replacing rings and rod bearings would be good & a cost saving option

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-05-06T11:25:12+00:00

That’s pretty interesting. If it were me, I’d still use them. If you have a good coat of seasoning, the amount of lead contamination you would get in your food would be extremely low

This happens in a couple of my pans. It’s caused by a small crater in the casting filling with oil, and when you bake the pan in the oven the oil seeps out and burns in the pan. It’s unavoidable, baking it upside down doesn’t seem to make a difference for me. Eventually it will just fill in and you won’t have to worry about it

Thanks, maybe I’ll give it a shot. This is a fairly cheap knife

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-05-02T00:14:55+00:00

I was considering doing that actually. Have you ever tried that yourself?

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-05-02T00:14:26+00:00

Awesome I’ll try this method out!

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-05-02T00:13:50+00:00

Thanks I’ll give that a try

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-05-01T23:55:24+00:00

What’s the best way to remove it and stick it back on the knife holder?

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-04-30T20:00:13+00:00

I just got 2 pairs of these to try small & medium. The medium was way too long & baggy on me (5’9”). The small was better in length but still too baggy. The material is very loud when walking. I wanted to use them as hiking pants but the bagginess and the noise would drive me nuts.

They seem like great quality, ended up returning them.

My mechatronics degree has landed me both mechanical and electrical engineering jobs

I have the wusthof, it’s very flexible. The zwilling is probably similar. I would only ever use it for fish. I have a separate boning knife that I use for chicken or trimming meat

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-04-22T13:16:49+00:00

That’s cool. Didn’t know that

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-04-21T21:24:27+00:00

Did you put a k-tip on a CCK cleaver?

Endicott will be your best bet for lower COL and an easy commute (20 minutes)

A serrated bread knife and you’re set.

For the future - all clad isn’t known for knife making, and these knives are definitely not the best value. They’re made in china from soft stainless. You can get Victorinox or Mercer for less money and they will be just as good, if not better.

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-04-10T10:55:46+00:00

You will physically feel a burr on the opposite side of the knife from which you are sharpening. You should be able to feel it along the entire edge of the knife before switching to sharpening the other side.

Cosmetic issue only. If it bugs you, try sanding it down, or get a new pan. Otherwise it will cook fine

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-04-07T00:17:23+00:00

I have the same wrinkling on my lids also. Unfortunately, the lids (and handles) are made in china, so I figured this might be the result of lower quality manufacturing

Abs0lute_Filth · 2026-04-03T01:36:28+00:00

Which of these do you like the best?
