On a recent post about the role of the "big knife" I mentioned that I became more convinced about "big knives" by my preferences in the kitchen (I have a large triangular 10" bladed Sabatier chefs knife that I use for most kitchen chores.
Anyway I wondered if anyone around makes kitchen knives as well as "bush knives" and had a nosy on British Blades.
The answer is yes! There seems to be quite a few. This particularly caught my eye

A stu mitchell blade for £50! . If I wasn't such a klutz in the workshop, I'd put a handle on that and probably use it more than any of my other knives
I do use moras in the kitchen (best paring and utility knife there is) and I often use my Flyssa for carving since its like a razor. I also have "game prep" skinning knives but I've never thought of getting proper kitchen knives made. Does anyone else do that?
