Hey, I admit it, I'm hooked on Diners, Drive-In's and Dives...so I couldn't help myself. The t-shirt was a gift for a delayed shipment...my son won't let me wear it out of the house however. Knives are a personal preference purchase but this set is turning out to be a great mid-range priced carbon steel set that seem to keep a really nice edge and are well balanced (in my hand). Next year it will be something else...but for now the Wusthof's go into the mothballs...

The Story Behind My Knives
“In 2007 I met the designers of Ergo Chef at a gourmet show. I used the cutlery on stage during my demo and was given a set to take home. After a year of wear and tear in my kitchen - trust me it can be a knife gauntlet - I was hooked on the quality and design of Ergo Chef’s product. Before I knew it, I was teaming up with them to develop my own collection. We sketched a range of designs lookin’ for the select few that really rocked technically and aestheticallyI’m a Hot Rod guy who knows that in order to do car-building right, you need high quality performance parts. The same idea applies to cooking, so the right knives are key. My product features a combination of the best materials with a design that will blow your mind!
As a chef, restaurant owner, and TV personality, I have high expectations for my equipment and these knives meet and exceed all of them. I’d like to thank everyone who brought these knives to reality.!”
