Reply to comment by NimrodVWorkman in Recommendation for BIFL chef's knife? by notproudortired

Even if they are banged around.

My most used knife in a kitchen was this janky 10 inch blade* that had the front two inches busted off. Cut and prepped just as well as any other knife in the kitchen.

My wife still uses a Shun with the tip broken off, yep. She's a great cook, and gentle with people and animals, but really hard on "stuff."

A BIFL knife discussion is almost like a BIFL discussion on cast iron pans.

Shun’s are pretty, but they chip if you look at them wrong. Still work though! Depending where the chip is.
