  • How to Choose Knives Upstream and Downstream of Good Cooking There Is Always a Good Knife
    COLTELLERIE BERTI How to choose Knives Upstream and downstream of good cooking there is always a good knife. Every day we use many objects without knowing their intimate nature and without knowing which phenomena and undisputable physical laws determine their operation and usefulness for us .However, understanding such matters is impossible, considering the vast amount of knowledge it would require. These few pages, which make no claim to covering everything, will give you the opportunity of getting to know something more about knife making so you can use your knives better and get more satisfaction out of them. Handmade. Made in Italy. Choosing a knife for home. How to choose Is it normal to use saw blades to cut food other than bread, focaccia and products out of the oven? Is it really parsimonious to spend less for a knife that cuts badly and that you later have to throw away? Is it really an idea of the past to have high quality blades sharpened ever now and then, so you can still count on an excellent cutting tool through time? Is it a luxury to cut meat at the table with a hand made, smooth-bladed knife having a handle made of horn? We think not. This is why we feel it our duty to illustrate the essential cutting requirements with good knives, to all those who want to choose a knife set from our Collections. You can choose among preparation, serving and table knives with: Stainless steel blades with a high degree of carbon to ensure a long lasting cut.

  • Pocket Knife Safety and Etiquette Here Are Some General Safety Guidelines to Follow Whenever Using a Pocket Knife
    GSME Pocket Knife Safety Introduction Pocket knives are a useful tool when camping and being in the outdoors. Learning knife safety and usage is an important skill to help instill confidence in the girls and help them take ownership in tasks that require the use of knives as well as ensure proper technique and safety for all involved. Girls must not use sharp tools until they have been instructed in the safe use of the tool by a trained/knowledgeable adult. Never assume girls know good safety practices even if they use a knife at home. Establish expected safety rules, and expect each girl to follow them at all times. Allow the girls to practice their skills in a developmentally appropriate manner (starting with a paper knife and moving up to a pocket knife once a girl has individually demonstrated the skills with pocket knife progression), and set aside our adult fears. The only way for girls to master their knife skills and become confident in their abilities is to practice with a real knife. There are 4 levels to earning a knife safety certificate and the privilege to carry a pocket knife to Girl Scout functions. Please take the time to work through each step, ensuring the girls have mastered the skill before moving on. In order to receive her certificate, each girl must demonstrate her knowledge and skills. A general progression guideline is: Level 1 is for Daisies and up, Level 2 is for Brownies and up, and Level 3 and 4 are for Juniors and up. After earning her Pocket Knife Safety Certification, a girl must keep her certification card with her at all times when using a pocketknife at Girl Scout functions.

In Japanese, “Shun” (pronounced “shoon” and rhymes with “moon”) is the precise moment during the year when any particular food is at the peak of its perfection. Shun is when fruit is at its sweetest, when vegetables are perfectly ripe, perfectly fresh, and perfectly delicious. Shun is in harmony with the natural rhythms of the seasons. Shun Cutlery proudly takes its name from this Japanese culinary tradition of preparing and eating the very freshest food at the perfect “shun” moment. It is a tradition we live up to every day, making fine kitchen knives that are always at the peak of their perfection, too.
