There are a few good makers out there, but you might have to go topless…
In the spirit of recommending what you have – Blok – I bought a chef quite some years ago (old shape and only paid £250 for it at the time). Very nice, each is unique, very well balanced and a joy to use, Ben is a sound Derby lad, free sharpening if you need it and he’s offered to put new scales on mine if I want them because someone put it in the dishwasher. If you have the cash, worth it, in my opinion.
Then you’ve got Michael May up there in Sheff. Not as spendy as Blok. Less fancy pants and easier to get hold of, but damn good knives from the home of knives.
Blenheim Forge – Hand forged rather than sharpened and shaped stock. Very nice.
