Hello all.
I have this friend who never, ever cooks. However we often grill meats at his place, and one thing his kitchen is severly lacking is a knife that will actually slice the tri-tip or the chuck steak or whatever it is we're grilling that day (usually tri-tip).
I want to buy him a slicing knife, but I know he will throw it in the sink from across the room, leave it dirty and wet all night, and then put it in the drawer lose along with his 2 forks 3 spoons, old expired carl's junior coupons and whatnot.
Oh and honing/sharpening? Hahahahahaha... good one.
Yeah, forget about that.
So basically I don't want to spend more than $20-$30.
If everybody starts laughing at that price point, fine, I'll just go to Target and buy any cheap slicing knife I can find. But if anyone has any idea on something halfway decent in this price range, and that will withstand the abuse and still slice through a tri-tip okay?
Thanks!
