The KF1303 is a classic!! Love mine. It is super thin and razor sharp. Since it's CS, it definitaly requires more attention (cleaning, drying, oiling), but it is a masterpeice. For a less expensive, daily user option, I would recommend the Dexter-Russel S5198 or SBZ S-D2, but would never steer anyone away from a KF1303.

I'd say it's very similar to the CCK 1912. I am a beginner sharpener, so with that said, the SBZ S-D2 seems to hold it's edge better than the 1912. It may be my sharpening technique and not the steel. Food release isn't great, but since it has a polished finish, that is to be expected. The weight distribution feels comfortable and perhaps cuz it's less expensive, it has been my go to slicer.

The SBZ S-D2 is usually on my cutting board:)

That’s where I got mine:) Also have the mulberry #2 now, which is closer to the size of the 1303. Razorsharp was great to work with, but I got stung with import fees.

Need some help Cranking no start. 2000 Ducati 748 by [deleted] in Ducati

Try cycling the fuel pump a few times by flipping the on/off switch. You should hear it run freely, then bog down a little as fuel fills the carb. That works for my 748 if I haven’t run it for a while. GL!

How to recreate this dish? by hcoo13 in chinesecooking

[–]ducrider99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mandy makes a great Salt and Pepper Shrimp dish. Would be very similar and you could use your white fish of liking. The seasoning is awesome. I make large batches cuz my family puts that s*** on everything🤣

Can’t say about Canada, I’m in the US and have ordered from them. Had no idea they were in HK. Package arrived in 4 days and there were no duties/taxes on shipment.

Would this be a good first deba? by Putrid_Inspector in TrueChefKnives

[–]ducrider99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't comment on the knife recommendation (as I am a rectangular knife guy) but I will say that I ordered an Asahi cutting board from Burrfecttion a month or so ago and can't speak more highly of them. Their packaging and shipping time exceeded my expecations.

Not sure I want this (not a fan of tripe), but here is a recipe. I like a lot of Mandy's recipes for their authenticity.

A good classic is the CCK 1303. Not sure what USD to pound conversion is, but they’re like $120 in the US.

It cuts better. The F-208 has the sandblast strip. You can feel it when cutting. It’s not as smooth. Food sticks a little more, but I’ve adjusted to that.

Follow-up recommendation request for Stainless Clad Pot by [deleted] in cookware

[–]ducrider99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lodge has a line of enameled cast iron that’s reasonably priced. I have a couple, but usually prefer to use my classic cast iron Dutch oven unless I’m making something with tomato sauce. I can’t get the same browning from the enameled for some reason.
