Merry Christmas to me!!!

I recently moved into and apartment by myself and finally found the need for a real chefs knife. So I went ahead a got myself a Christmas present!

New West 8" 'Carbon Steel' chef's knife. 1095 Tool steel, .095" blade thickness, walnut handle. It's a freaking laser! New west only made 30 in this steel/handle combo. I'm so glad I was able to snag one.

I had to show it off and I know you guys would really appreciate it. There are a few pictures of it here: http://imgur.com/a/Z7sgK

I would link to the Web site, but they must have sold-out because it's no longer listed.

Congrats on the xmas present, Sweet knife. It can also be a self defense knife in case you get a suspicious knock on the door when cooking.

Very nice Christmas present. You should thank the person who gave it to you buy buying him a nice paring knife. :)

A very nice person (me :) ) bought me a last minute present. He ordered a 2"x8" Spyderco UF sharpening stone. I have loved the results I get from the UF triangle rod I have and wanted the larger stone for quite some time. Now, a very special person (me :) ) has sacrificed and bought me one. I love that guy. :D

Actually, it was my wife's idea to get each other one last minute gift. So she got me the stone (she doesn't know it yet :) ). I can't wait to see what I get her. :D

You are right. It would be rude of me to not to! I'll update this thread when he gets it!
