serrated?

Did someone ever make a decent non-serrated steak knife??

I've purchased nice heavy built ones on occasion - and I find myself reaching for the cheap and lightweight 30 yr old Farber with the thin/cheap (stamped?) blades.

Makes non sense - but they simply function/feel better.

The best thing I did is purchased non-serrated steak knives and a worksharp belt sharpener. I'm not even sure what knives I have but I got them from one of the kitchen stores because I liked how they felt. Sharpen them up every month or so and I've had no issues with my knives. Is it fun, nope, but I haven't had many issues either with my knives the past 3 years or so. Also a good excuse to sharpen up the big game knives and fillet knife so they're aways ready.

For those that can just sharpen them by hand, you have talents that I don't!

ive got some wusthoff ones that are pretty decent, had them for 20 years now. If you cut on hard plates of course it will dull the blade quickly, but if you use plastic/wooden plates they hold up pretty good. Anything with a straight edge pretty much cannot hold up cutting on glass, except maybe ceramic blade knives...

I never really thought about it until now, but there's a squeegee-like "squeak" I feel/hear when I cut steak with a non-serrated knife - and it bugs me somehow.

I'm definitely "on the spectrum" I guess.

My steaks cut with a butter knife, you guys don't need better knives, you need better cooking skills.

I like a serrated steak knife. I bought the ginsu 6 piece set off of amazon. They're pretty good but I've used better ones. My Mom has some old serrated steak knives that I really like but can't tell what brand they are and probably not made anymore.

Classic situation - for a lot of things.

I inherited a set of these almost 20 years ago, and they were used before I got them. I would really like to find more of the same or similar, but there is no branding/identification on them. Frustrating someone would make such an awesome knife and not put a brand on it.

They have a unique fine seration pattern and have never been sharpened. They have exclusively been run through dishwashers and used almost daily for food prep and as silverware, whereas the nice Wusthof knives are hand washed only and dull faster when used as silverware on hard plates.

The serrations are fine enough they make a nice looking cut through meat where others give more of a torn appearance. Also great for food prep as they slice tomatoes much nicer than the fancy Wusthof knives.
