Perfectly balanced with enough flexibility to maneuver around tight joints. The low price was a bonus. RECOMMENDED Wüsthof Classic Boning Knife ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ $99.95 Hefty in weight, this knife was a solid performer when removing poultry bones, and the handle was easy to grip, even when covered in chicken fat. Piercing silver skin was a challenge since the tip wasn’t sharp enough and the long narrow blade produced slightly jagged cuts. RECOMMENDED WITH RESERVATIONS Mundial Boning Knife: Flexible ★ ★ ★ ★ $19.95 The sharp tip performed well when removing silver skin, but it was too flexible when maneuvering around poultry joints, leaving testers feeling a lack of control. The heavy handle was slightly unbalanced and became slippery once covered in poultry fat. NOT RECOMMENDED Shun Gokujo Filet Knife ★ ★ ★ $179.95 Designed to replicate a samurai blade, this expensive knife was a disappointment. It struggled to pierce the silver skin, although long cuts were smooth and even. Minimal flexibility and extreme curve got in the way when maneuvering around joints. The smooth handle was hard to http://www.cooksillustrated.com/equipment/results.asp?docid=19985 Page 1 of 2 Boning Knives - Cooks Illustrated 03/02/11 1:09 PM grip and slippery. NOT RECOMMENDED MAC Boning Knife—Chef Series ★ ★ ★ $34.95 The large, cumbersome handle reminded testers of an outdoors knife for fishing and hunting. The blade was too wide to maneuver around joints and it struggled to pierce silver skin. Unlike other knives, this boning knife could only slice in one direction, making intricate cuts around joints difficult. NOT RECOMMENDED Messermeister San Moritz Elite Flexible Boning Knife ★ ★ $53.60 The blade was so flexible it led to erratic cuttings; testers said the knife was hard to control. The blade was not sturdy enough to maneuver around joints and the lightweight handle felt flimsy and unbalanced. *Prices subject to change.

  • Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh
    Marjaana Jauhola Marjaana craps of Hope in Banda Aceh examines the rebuilding of the city Marjaana Jauhola of Banda Aceh in Indonesia in the aftermath of the celebrated SHelsinki-based peace mediation process, thirty years of armed conflict, and the tsunami. Offering a critical contribution to the study of post-conflict politics, the book includes 14 documentary videos Scraps of Hope reflecting individuals’ experiences on rebuilding the city and following the everyday lives of people in Banda Aceh. Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh Banda in Hope of Scraps in Banda Aceh Marjaana Jauhola mirrors the peace-making process from the perspective of the ‘outcast’ and invisible, challenging the selective narrative and ideals of the peace as a success story. Jauhola provides Gendered Urban Politics alternative ways to reflect the peace dialogue using ethnographic and in the Aceh Peace Process film documentarist storytelling. Scraps of Hope in Banda Aceh tells a story of layered exiles and displacement, revealing hidden narratives of violence and grief while exposing struggles over gendered expectations of being good and respectable women and men. It brings to light the multiple ways of arranging lives and forming caring relationships outside the normative notions of nuclear family and home, and offers insights into the relations of power and violence that are embedded in the peace. Marjaana Jauhola is senior lecturer and head of discipline of Global Development Studies at the University of Helsinki. Her research focuses on co-creative research methodologies, urban and visual ethnography with an eye on feminisms, as well as global politics of conflict and disaster recovery in South and Southeast Asia.

Conditions for the preservation of skeletal material were highly favourable, and the three major dumps of rubbish on the site were found to contain large quantities of animal bone. Many of the specimens recovered were sufficiently intact to allow measurement, and for the first time for the city of London, it has been possible to carry out a detailed statistical analysis of mammalian bone from late medieval and early Tudor contexts. An account of this study, carried out at the British Museum (Natural History) between 1974-77, forms the subject of this th e sis.

As a witness to this amazing cultural exchange in the culinary world, it gives me great joy to see Japanese knives highly regarded and used by esteemed chefs worldwide. Although I am not a chef or a restaurateur, I believe that my role in this industry is to find the highest quality tools from Japan in hopes that they may assist you in reaching your career goals. While making this knife catalog, we did extensive research to provide our readers with as much information as possible so as to maximize the potential of the knives and services offered through Korin.
