Lesson everything needs care and maintenance. Sharping my knives and polishing copper teaches me patience and appreciation of my tools. #bobkramer #bobkramerknives #mauviel1830 #mauviel #knives (at Lower Manhattan)

Anthony Bourdain Meteorite Chef Knife by Bob Kramer "You could buy a BMW for the price of this thing. It used to be that you put your name on the list and then you wait for years to get one, but this was given to me by the maker, Bob Kramer, at a very reasonable price. He forges his own steel using all the different elements-there are pieces of meteorite in there! He beats it until it’s insanely hot, and pounds it and folds it and pounds it-It don’t know how many hundreds of layers. It’s like a mille-feuille. I don’t trust anyone else to touch it. There’s an old superstition that you can’t trust your knife until you cute yourself with it-so until then, you have to be wary of it. Once you nick yourself, your relationship can begin. I am not looking forward to my first cut with this. It will literally nick your finger off very, very quickly. And I like my fingers. I’m afraid of it. I fear the knife." -Anthony Bourdain (as told to Julia Black) Sold for $231,250.00USD 10/30/19 11:56:51 AM ET Description With the certificate of authenticity issued to Anthony Bourdain, March 31, 2016; with a black carrying case Catalog Number 87 Estimate $4000-6000 Measurements Length: the blade 10 inches, overall 15 1/4 inches Weight The knife and sheath 1 lb. 1 oz.
