I'll have that information in mind the next time I try to sharpen the knives. Last time I tried, I think I made the blades even more blunt then it already were.

Have that information stamped on a blade.
As a wannabe author, I could only be so lucky to get my work "pirated". Free publicity.
I understood you were referring to regular blades.
My respect for caring for your knives as you do. It's something I find challenging, to say the least.
I have to look up for those Thai Zebra. Never heard of it before. I usually buy domestic knives (IVO); we still have a few good manufacturers but I don't know if they export enough to be widespread.
It may be considered as such today but it panned as not worthy of the time for many years.
The 13th Warrior was another of those movies that got thrown into the grinder by critics and cinephiles for being not worth the effort just to develop a cult following in response.
Which remebers me of another panned movie: Pathfinder
And while we're at it, let's add both Dredd movies (the second is the best) and the Demolition Man.
Let a good movie exist by itself in peace, for crying out loud.
There was a time I was an avid cinema follower but that is long gone. Everything seems to be made to have sequels, prequels, skidmarks, spinoffs and anything else an accountant seems fit to pinch another penny from. Not from me.
I was once told their knives are not supposed to be sharpened. Or at least at a home setting. I was in a store, so I automatically take every word told to me with an extra grain of salt.
Never done it, but sharpening a serrated blade is not an easy task. Most will just wear down such a blade until rendered unusable and discard it afterwards.
For some reason, unclear even to myself, I have a serious dislike for Victorinox.
There are a few of those in the kitchen (didn't bought a single one) and I can't feel comfortable using it; it's as if it doesn't quite fit into my hand properly.
But if it that knife does the job for you, good!
The bread on the background, is it homemade or store bought? Looks nice.
My tastes may be questionable but that is too much even for me.
I remember seeing the first one in the theater when I was a kid and I later saw a letter my Mom was writing where she said it was a dumb movie, but the kids liked it. I was offended!
The movies can be considered bad, for today's standards but for what I care, it was a great way to spend some time. Where else could we se cannibal Care Bears?
I still enjoy the movie today.
And I once found it in book format but the text was too riddled with errors and typos to be enjoyable and worth the asking price.
One thing I had to learn quickly was that my preference towards anything cultural was not in line with what my peers found good/cool, so I strode down the road of enjoying what I enjoy and let others enjoy whatever they enjoy.
Here's a short list:
Roadhouse
The 13th Warrior
Both Ewoks movies

I have one and use it but I use my knives daily and use them well, as I carve my own meat cuts, prepare vegetables, fruits, etc.
For someone that enjoys cooking, I am aware I am lacking on the knives upkeep department. Sharpening by hand always fails me and my only mildly successful atempt involved using a belt sander on a moderate speed to try to emulate a grinding stone.
