Couldn't resist blocking the view of the knives again with different watch and the same freckle clad arm 😊 Todays knives: Victorinox. Watch: a french made Yema from 1977. In hind sight a Swiss watch would have been more appropriate for the Swiss knives 🤷... Ah well, next time 😅🔪⌚

Today's knives with today's watch 🔪+⌚ Thought I'd do some meta nerdism and sneak in my other hobby of restoring vintage watches 😅. This one is my latest, a 1957 Hafis. I think the colours match my "complexion" rather well ☺️

Ages since I posted anything... Kinda like how it takes ages to get the tiniest chips out of a deba 🥵 Always worth it though 🤩

My memory is not great but I think this is one of, if not THE first knife I sharpened for a customer and it has made its way back again for a little tickle up 🔪🏥 See you again in a year or so 😅

Another patient suffering from grinder abuse 😢 This poor thing was found in a farmers field and in need of rehabilitation🤕🚑🏥. But I think we can call the operation a success !🔪👨⚕️ Always great to see a neglected tool back in service!

A fresh set of NZ made Victory butchery knives in for a fresh NZ man made (me😁) edge to begin their service 🔪🍖
Boning knife has a very aggressive 300 grit edge and the skinning knife is sporting a 800/6000 combo edge with the polished bevel facing the "meat" side. The big fella is 6000 tip to toe.
Let's see the slow motion replay! 0.2x speed! That freckled hand moves rather quick if I do say so myself... Oh and the knife is pretty sharp too ☺️
Don't blink!
Who said Kiwis can't fly?! This Kiwi brand cleaver begs to differ 😅
FYI kiwi knives are made in Thailand and have no connection to NZ or any noble flightless birds 🙃
Breads beware 🔪🍞😱
Bubble bubble toil and trouble. Magic is about to happen. Abracadabra rubadubdub... P**F! Sharp knife! 🔪🧙♂️
