Original Coupon Deal

Good Easter everyone, I found this to be a reasonable deal. personally looking for a knife that is an upgrade from a Kiwi knife. Wusthof seemed to a cable knife.

It Would be ideal to use for cooking lovers when we all remain at home. Not a cheap knife but quality.

Flag me if you found a better deal :)

Thanks you

    Great knives, I’ve got the 26cm which is great for me but a bit too much for my wife, so I’ll grab the 20cm one for her.

    I am well aware that the above statement sounds a little dirty but I don’t know how to reword it.

    • AdosHouse on 10/04/2020 - 11:26

      100% first thing I thought when I read that first line was, 10" is pretty big.

      Stupid stay-at-home bored dirty brain.

    Good price, the one I found was shorter

  • miarn on 10/04/2020 - 11:48

    Dumb question but is 20cm a reference to the overall length or the blade length?

    • EightImmortals on 10/04/2020 - 12:04

      Pretty sure it's just the blade length. Though ask the shop just to be sure. :)

    • kickling on 10/04/2020 - 12:53

      Yes. Blade length is 20cm

      I agree. I am a fanboy' of Wusthof knives but Vics' are great too and more typically no so expensive.

  • hen dawg on 10/04/2020 - 13:48

    Can't see it being better than the awesome Global Chef knife at half the price (less on eBay sales) https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/272599990972

    • C0mbat on 10/04/2020 - 13:53

      I would disagree. Global knives are more for show. Their fancy looking grip is no match for a more traditional wooden grip.

    • Yaren24 on 10/04/2020 - 13:59

      It is way better, no in the same class, I am using Global G2 atm.

      • Tuba on 10/04/2020 - 14:17

        Wusthof are in a class above Global, been at it over 150 more years too. I believe every Wusthof is 58 sure hardness, while only some of the 4 Global knives are, not sure which ones. Id be interested to hear from somneone who sharpens them for a living re resharpening, holding an edge v dings in the edge.

        To be fair, "generalision alert" Japanese (Global) tend to make knives with blade angles better for slicing than Europe (Wusthof) who make a better knife for carving say pumpkin and spuds. They both use good steel.

        IMO, bugger sets too many knives, just buy a good Euro knife for carving and a bread knife, and Jap for a slicer or two and a paring knife. Thats been my understanding of quality knives in the home. But you wont have a matching set, then again, they arent socks.

        • Yaren24 on 10/04/2020 - 16:55

          Yes, buy it individually, the bread knife can be the cheapest sourced, the Victronix bread knife is great, I have one

      Kind of apples and oranges. The global knives are typical Japanese style, thinner blades. Some prefer that. The ikon is a beefy blade. Has some heft to it.
      very high quality steel with both brands.

      • Oldmate88 on 10/04/2020 - 22:26

        Agreed. I'm a Global fan-boy and not ashamed

  • Suspect420 on 10/04/2020 - 14:48

    I've been looking for a good quality kitchen knife for a while.

    Can anyone tell me the difference between this Wusthoff or this Kai Shun

    https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B003B66YKA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i…

    • Yaren24 on 10/04/2020 - 15:13

      Buy Wusthof if I were you, I have a Shun as well, it is not a workhorse knife like Wusthof.

    • droptester on 10/04/2020 - 16:12
      +3

      The Shun knife is harder, having a 60-61 Rockwell rating. The Wusthof here is rating at 58. What this means in real world terms is, the Shun will hold it's edge for a little longer, at the tradeoff of being more brittle if you hit something hard, like hitting a bone, whereas the Wusthof will just dull.

      I believe Shun has a free sharpening service, but you pay for postage. I believe Wusthof had one too, first sharpening is free, but I can't find any info on it at the moment.

    Costco is selling what seems to be the entire block and knife set for ~$370 delivered… is this legit?

    • 9839002 on 10/04/2020 - 21:35

      Those are good, but the ikon range is the top of the line. Costo ones are not ikons

      • Dealhunter967671 on 10/04/2020 - 22:42

        Thank you for the explanation!

      • Suspect420 on 11/04/2020 - 17:02

        What's the difference other than the handle?

        I've looked them up and the blades are exactly the same.

        I'm about to pull the trigger on this set since it's the cheapest I can find by about $180

        • Yaren24 on 11/04/2020 - 19:30

          The Icon is bit more comfortable, if you are not rushing, then you can wait for the next deal.
          So, I am wondering you know how to sharpen a knife?

          I would recommend to buy Wusthof, you should 2 types of knives, 1 x Jap 1 x German

          If this is your 1st quality knife, then I would recommend you to it. Considering you will keep for 10 years.

          Buy a quality knife, I know here others recommend Victronix, but for similar values, I would recommend the Global G2 in this market.

          let me know your decision, there are a lot of other options, I would imagine Aliexress would have some great deals as well

          Otherwise buy a Kiwi knife to give a shot, you will not regret it :)

          • Suspect420 on 12/04/2020 - 07:45

            @Yaren24: I've been using kiwi knives for the last few years and feel like I am ready for a good quality set of knives.

            I've decided to get the Wusthof classic from Costco and still looking to get a Jap Damascus steel knife since I think they look cool. Would love a specific suggestion 😉

            • Yaren24 on 12/04/2020 - 07:51

              @Suspect420: There is no specific advice, there are too many good knives out there, even Aliexpress may give you a good option.
              I may recommend this approach as I have been to the knife shop, some of the Chinese made knives are sharp and quality as well, not just JP or german

                @Yaren24: Hi Yaren,

                I have one last question.

                The Wusthof Classic 8 Piece is $370 from Costco Online and the cheapest Wusthof IKON Classic (same handle material - not the Blackwood) can find is $569 - is the IKON range worth the extra $200?

                • Yaren24 on 14/04/2020 - 15:28

                  @Suspect420: No

                  • Yaren24 on 14/04/2020 - 15:30

                    @Yaren24: Just buy one, bro, you don't need other knives,

                    All you need in the kitchen

                    1 x jap knife (or 2)
                    1 x german knife
                    1 x cheap cleaver
                    1 x kiwi knife
                    1 x cheap bread knife.
                    1 x santoku (Aldi's is good)

    I still can't understand how a knife can be so expensive? What's so special in such knives to be hundreds of $$ for just one knife?

    Sorry guys, I acknowledge I'm a knife noob, any help in understanding the value of these luxury knives would be much appreciated, thank you.

      Any watch tells the time, right? Some are just nicer to use. Much like knives. Steel quality, balance, handle. Using a nice knife is pretty cool if all you've ever used is a Wiltshire from big w

      If you love cooking, a knife is a tool you will use on daily basis, imagine when you have a stressful day, you wanting something smoother and better to calm you. Having a quality knife would make that difference. That knife would last you for a long time, even you can buy 2 x Globals, but the quality is not the same

  • pupdog on 11/04/2020 - 19:16

    For someone new to the quality knife game, would it be a better idea to get a lower end knife like Victorinox say, and learning how to sharpen on that, rather than jumping in to the top tier and risk ruining an expensive knife because your sharpening skills aren't what they could be?

    • Yaren24 on 11/04/2020 - 19:35

      Yeah, couldnt agree more, I have a lot of cheap knives,

      From Kmart to Aldi, Aldi to Kiwi knives.

      knife sharpening skills would come with time. Even with a cheap blade you can make it sharp as it can be, but they may get dull quickly. It is joyful experience to use a quality knife.

  • trendisyourfriend on 11/04/2020 - 21:08

    Classic is the standard 'classic' shape model knife.
    Ikon is the higher priced range, and has a different aesthetic which some may find more comfortable. To me it feels better balanced than the classic.

    Both classic and ikon have same steel quality and same blade edge so should cut the same.
    Both are full tang.

    I have used both ikon and classic and they are both great.

    IMO for most cases you can end up grapping the 20cm chef knife. A block set of knives doesn't add that much because how often do you really use a bread knife or small paring knife?.

    Wusthof AU have a free sharpening service for their knives. I had to contact them and then send knives by post. They were returned sharpened. Was awesome as they come back like new.

    • Yaren24 on 11/04/2020 - 21:23

      Exactly, most of the bread is been cut at the shops, you don't need to use them often unless ppl make bread a lot.

      Good knives make a life difference.
