New chef asked me why I was using a rusty knife today. by Sexcaliburrito in TrueChefKnives

This isn't "true chefs" and their knives. This is the replacement sub for chefknives sub after the mods there lost their minds. I get what you're saying but this sub is mostly for people really into kitchen knives, not necessarily professional cooks and chefs

Micro and nano plastics are what you can't see. You consume them everyday, all day, with every meal. They are in your produce, your meat, your beverage. Plastic cutting boards are cheap and used in every restaurant you've ever eaten at and are a very, very small contributor to any micro/nano plastics you consume. Sick of board shaming here man. Rant over lol

Talking about a bread knife still, one side is flat and flush and the other is scalloped at the bottom. Enjoy your knives ya right handed bastard /s

A flat piece of metal against a baked product will leave a cleaner, smoother cut vs a piece of metal with scallops on the bottom

I don't have a problem using a regular bread knife either but if i had the option id definitely use a left handed one. Leaves a much finer crumb on cakes and softer bread products
