armed & dangerous...

yes, i am. armed and extremely dangerous. that's right, i am now fully equipped with the tools of my trade... my 10 inch chef knife being the Excalibur of my set. this thing is a BEAST. i think most of us are accustomed to using an 8 inch chef but add another 2 inches and you've got a whole new breed of animal. i can only imagine what a 12 inch looks like... probably just short of being a samurai sword! anyway, this knife is, in one word, SHARP! just tested it out with lunch and this thing slices through meat and dices onions without the slightest effort. i'm so tempted to do the whole "toss a tomato in the air and slice through it" like they do on those infomercials. hmmm... maybe later ;).

so now, like a ninja, i travel around with my knives. strange, the fact that i can legally carry around four knives and a 12 inch sharpening steel in public. this is probably a good thing considering the culinary school is a couple of blocks from probably the worst area in Vancouver... maybe even Canada! so if you plan on pulling any funny stuff on me, think twice... you've been warned...
