I have to think it is not a good design or professional chefs would use knives that had a finger hole in them right?
I'm not necessarily talking about this particular knife which looks gimmicky to me, I'm just using the picture to illustrate my question. The ad says the knife "features a precision index finger hole for superior control."
I'm just wondering if anyone has ever used a design like this...
I have Wüsthof knives that I've used for decades, but lately I actually prefer using a set of vintage Old Hickory knives that were given to me. The Old Hickory knives don't have a bolster like the Wüsthof and it is easier for me to do dicing pinching the blade, rather than holding the knife by the handle behind the bolster. Getting out in front of the bolster of the Wüsthof is also kind of awkward so I've been using the old Old Hickory knives for cutting vegetables.
