Winco

Perfect! Exactly what we were looking for for our Megatop cooler

An excellent knife that has a great balance and handles very well. It looks like Winco has addressed many of the minor issues with previous versions in this design. This knife is a significant improvement over the KFP-80.
The new half-bolster makes the knife lighter, and doesn\'t get in the way of the cutting edge. It also makes sharpening much easier. In addition, the knife edge came profiled at 15 degrees on each side, and well-sharpened.

In practice, the knife is a pleasure to work with. It works just as well for rocking, chopping, as it does for finesse tasks, like chopping onions.

If you prefer a longer knife, Winco also makes a 10 inch version - I was impressed with it. You can see my review of it here:

Having reviewed many Winco knives, I had a pretty good idea of what to expect. However, this knife blew my expectations away. This is easily the best knife Winco has ever made. With this newer design, they also took the opportunity to fix other issues from previous models.

What makes this particular knife stand out, is that unlike Winco\'s other 10 inch knives, it features a thinner blade with a much thinner tip. Similar to what you would see on their 8 inch knives. This has two effects:
1. With the thinner blade tip, this 10 inch knife is ideal for finesse tasks, like processing onions and tomatoes.
2. The reduced forward weight results in exceptional balance, even with the longer blade.
I explain this more in my video.

In addition, unlike other Winco knives I\'ve reviewed in the past, this one came profiled at 15 degrees on each side, which is optimal. No re-profiling was necessary.

-The edge grind is a little uneven, but this has no effect on functionality. And this will even out over time as the knife is re-sharpened.

Excellent

Great product. I would definitely order from TigerChef again!

Will be using the 6-section pie cutter for our Church Ice Cream/Pie Social. The blades are very sturdy and sharp. This will make for even pie slices and a much easier and faster project for those cutting the pies. We will probably purchase a couple more.

Good quality, fast delivery. Seller is ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I really like the pans and they arrived in a timely fashion.

Perfect!

Excellent choice for healthy cooking. No teflon finish to scratch off and poison you. This pan cooks fried eggs without them sticking. We are getting rid of all our coated pans and replacing them with these.
