What are those knives advertised on the Home Shopping Network all the time? You know, the one he uses to cut on a steel hammer then grabs a tomato and cuts it cleanly? For the life of me I can't remember the name of them.....

I have the Outdoor Edge series of knives, and they are wonderful. I've personally never seen a knife you don't need to at least run over a steel once in a while.....While your using a knife, the edge has a tendancy to "roll over" and the steel releases that burr and brings it back to a good, sharp edge.
