I'm not a CIA Alumni but I do consider many of them my friends.
I was a friend of Joe Amendola as well.
He was a great man!

Class of 79...my first set of Henckels were a gift from my mom they had the cutting edge (at the time) synthetic handles...stolen from D-Block. Thats a long time to miss a set of knives! LOL
Still my favorite brand of knives!

Well Jeffrey, Here is an other Jeffrey c.i.a. grad '83 yeah i'm an old guy, but still in the kitchen, my own kitchen and I love it!
Here is my one thought on knives and I hesitate because I think it is revolutionary and will open eyes to the flaw that most knives still have.
It is the heel, get rid of that back end bolster.
I found a knife without it and now I am able to sharpen my knife with out that damn concave dip in the back of the blade thank you DBK!
That is all I got

It's a good point, and a discussion that's better for my other group "Cutting Edge" http://fohboh.com/group/...
For bolsterless Henckels knives check out the Twin Cermax, made at our factory in Japan http://usa.jahenckels.co..., as well as our new Japanese line Miyabi coming out in the fall as well as the Twin 1731 http://www.zwilling.com/... also launching in the fall. Also, 1983, it's your 25th reunion, go back to campus or come to the party in Chicago
