[quote=Anonymous]Well, that's the trick. There are some stores, like Williams Sonoma and I think maybe Sur La Table, that will take them out and let you test-drive them. At Williams Sonoma one time they even had a chopping board and some test vegetables. But after they've gone to that trouble and taken that time, you'd better buy from them. It's pretty low to use their sales resources and then buy online. So you're committing to paying retail (or sale retail) prices. For the investment in something you're going to use daily for years, I'd still take that route. Otherwise, try them at friend's houses when you see something you like? Ask around? See if a salesperson will at least take one out of the package and let you hold it? They did this for me at BB&B when we were registering for our wedding. If this is your first chef knife, I wouldn't recommend buying sight unseen online. You may be fine, but you may get one that's not ideal for you, and have a mismatched knife for years. [/quote]
