They have a pretty interesting lineup I'll say. Definitely eyeballing the atom models

Yeah, I've used those before. Super handy, for the right applications.

Let me start out by saying that I am by no means an authority on the matter.

First was some generic brand 7" chef's knife. I think I paid around $40 for it. It did alright for a while, but what I noticed about it was that the ergonomics and fit/finish were (just slightly) lacking. Unrefined edges made it a bit uncomfortable to use.

My next knife was from Zwilling. It's another standard 7" chef's knife with the hollow cutouts on the blade. This one was much better quality wise, the fit and finish and balance are all there.

The next one after that is a 5" Chef's knife (with hollow cutouts) from Wüsthof. This is my current everyday knife, and I like the size of this one much better. I got this one because I really needed something more compact, and it's been great for mostly everything I use it for right now.

The next knife I want to get is a Nakiri style. Wusthof is sold out of their more affordable line, and the Zwilling one doesn't have the hollow cuttouts on the blade. The Zwilling brand doesn't look quite as good as the Wusthof, in my opinion, but it may still function great.

The last thing I'd like to mention is a knife sharpener. When I got my Zwilling, they also threw in this little keychain Wusthof sharpener, and as long as I give my knife a few swipes every couple of times I use it, they stay pretty sharp. Definitely don't overlook this detail, because even a lower quality knife will benefit greatly from a consistent sharpening routine like that.

Good luck, and I hope that helps. Let me know what you end up going with if you do decide!

Could you provide a link please?

Fucking A man. I really can't tell. You really sold it.

I'd be kicking some mf'ing shell, that's for sure!

Maybe the microwave didn't work properly, or maybe they reduce the power settings to cook things more evenly over a longer period of time?

I'm guessing that's the one that went behind the exclusive paywall?

I was more so asking about the patreon feeds you mentioned

Which ones, if you don't mind sharing?

Your new prints turned out much better than the old ones. Nice work. What printer did you upgrade to?

I feel that. It's hard sometimes. You feel like the real you almost doesn't exist anymore.

Creative outlets help, I think.

I definitely agree with this one. It makes browsing feel very stagnant at times, because unless I go out of my way to view the communities I've subscribed to then I don't really see most of them.

Thank you for the help with the photos. I'm still struggling with it for some reason...

I appreciate the feedback on the vertical bars being too thin, that makes sense. I'll do some adjustments to the design, do some calibration prints, and give it another shot.
