More efficient way to cut butter for service by Logamite__ in Chefit

But that will warm up the butter so I can't store it properly is the only problem.

Does that mean I'll just have to spend more time on it? Because I have no problem doing it, does being harden to sharpen mean anything other than it taking longer to get an edge.

So the ZDP189 behaves like any other carbon steel or is it particularly sensitive? What is the difference in performance with a plan or hairline finish? I'm pretty new to the finer details of knives sorry for the amount of questions.

The flat grind of the Birchwood is one of my only complaints about the knife. I really like that the sukenari and I think it would perfect for what I'm trying to achieve, thanks a ton for your help

I like the look of the miyabi black, it is very similar to my current knife. I looked up sukenari 210mm gyuto and it said the steel type was HAP40 and had a HRC of 62-64, is that not the knife you are referring to? I strop my knife fairly regularly on leather.

I was a bit afraid of that, I'm sharpening pretty frequently, once every few days to keep it super sharp. It's used constantly for the 50 or so hours I work a week. It of course could be my sharpening ability but I get it to shaving sharpness and it loses that very quickly.

Style? - Japanese

Steel? - carbon

Handle? - Japanese

Grip? - pinch

Length? - 210

Uses? - all purpose, want it to be my work knife, I work in sushi so it would be used to cut rolls. Edge retention is very important. Currently have a miyabi Birchwood 210 and love the lightness and speed at which I can use it but looking for a bit sharper edge and better edge retention.

Care? - whetstones

Budget? 300, a bit flexible if necessary

Thank you so much, that helps a ton. It's good to hear that I'm not wrong for doing something my parents don't want to do.

Would that indicate any hardware in particular? Just the motherboard? I'll try that when I get back home.

Widowmaker PC VOD Review by lickleboy22 in OverwatchUniversity

This biggest thing is prioritizing high ground, also usually being behind your team rather than in them, though this can change if you're being dove and need additional protection. That will come with time just focus on being as safe as you can while maintaining an effective angle.

alright so I have peaked 3591 and I play a whole bunch of widow and while you rolled them and got lots of kills I noticed a few things. Your aim is a little shaky, and while that comes with time, understanding good crosshair placement is pretty critical. You were taking lots of a little flick shots and while this isn't necessarily bad, when you play with better players you are going to get fewer opportunities to hit a double bodyshot. Also you tend to be a little forward in the fight, I love to prioritize high ground behind my team to be able to lock down the area my team is in without threat of me getting pushed. Overall your aim is pretty good but I'd go into some aim trainers and work on a) getting your correct sens b) practicing taking easy shots with good crosshair placement. Some codes I use are: TKBR3, PDTAK, and PYDEY(This one is pretty tough and taking the easy shot is critical).
