What’s the most used knife in your house?  Chances are it’s a kitchen knife, and sometimes not a very good one!  We can help, and with some of our picks, we can dream.  In Episode 96, we each make some kitchen knife picks in a series of price ranges.  From affordable to “OH DAMN” we cover a lot of territory as usual.  Dust off the googlebox and join us for the ride.
