Not much detail, but an interesting video feature about making high-end
($2,500) kitchen knives.

Wow!

The performance test was awesome (slicing the rope, etc). Not just a
pretty face.

Damn, I just partially froze a pork loin and in the mean time sharpened my butcher knife
on a diamond stone. It wasn't scary sharp but it wasn't boring dull . Slabs of meat
are easier to cut up if they are semi frozen imho.

If I ever buy a lotto ticket and win big, I'll buy one of his damascus knives. Pork
loin look out! His knives are pretty. I wonder if he also has a sharpening service? I'm
thinking that most people, including me, can't renew the edge he put on to the same degree
of excellence.

I've rented a few from them & my biggest complaint was/is that the
videos were too drawn out. I.e., a little content stretched to fit the
target length. For example, there was a gear-cutting video that showed
cutting tooth after tooth after tooth, when one or two would have made
the point.

I've rented quite a few on auto bodywork and found most to be very
good. It's useful to see actual paint gun motion, etc.
