A few weeks ago I told you about Shun knives and how much I love them. I understand that the knives are very expensive and really don't fit into most people's budgets for a knife. Here is my absolute favorite affordable alternative, Rada Cutlery.
These knives are SHARP and extremely durable. You can get this awesome knife on Amazon for around $9. I first discovered these knives in an Amish community in Western PA and bought a paring knife and a chef's dicer. I bought those knives about 14 years ago and they are still incredibly sharp and have maintained a perfect edge.
What is your favorite bargain item that is just as good or better than the big name brand?
great recommendation - will check out Rada! i love me some shun and wusthof but great to have a more affordable alternative. loving your blog by the way!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a great knife. Sadly I don't have any non-brand wins lately. I keep hoping. :) I don't have a shun knife but I do have a large set of Wusthof.
ReplyDelete$9? Really? That's a nice buy if this knife works well! Like Maureen, I also have Wusthof too, which we received as wedding gift off our wedding registry. I love sharpening knife... as if it's my hobby! Hehee.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't live without a good knife! Critical and so worth it.
ReplyDeleteThat's a great looking knife and a great price! Have to check this out. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteA good knife is something to behold - the knives at my kitchen office sucked as and brought a $9 paring knife that I bought at Whole Foods - it works great!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to check that knife out though! Hope you have a great Saturday night!
This is a great looking knife. I haven't bought a knife in so long, and mine are kind of blunt. This is a great recommendation.
ReplyDeleteMy Shun knife is probably my favorite possession! Great that there are alternatives for those that can't afford them! Mercer is also another great cheaper brand!
ReplyDeleteAwesome reviuew my friend, it does sound good :D
ReplyDeleteHate eating with overly blunt knives!
Cheers
