One of my first internet knives. Great blade. I mean *great* but the handle was a bit weird. Right now it just sits at the bottom of my knife kit.

I've owned one of these for over 3 years now, using it daily. I've never had to sharpen (grind) it, just an occasional run along a fine steel, and it's held a wonderful edge for everyday prep....

Yes, Justine, the Equipment forum and its knives sub-forum would be good places to post your questions. You might also use the search tool to see if your question has been posed before. However, take into consideration the date of the posts; outdated advice isn't much use.
Congratulations! We hope to see you participate here even after your gift has been selected.

Justine,
I'd like to help you out with your knife choices to the extent I'm able, but will wait for you to initiate a thread in the knife section. Or, if you like, I'll do it for you.
Let me know,
BDL

Giving kitchen as a wedding gift is great and unique idea. Victorinox knives are good if you could buy it. Else start a thread in culinary section
