  2. LoLz! - Mind you! -
  3. I just have to report back here, that I've heard from @Xerxes, today by PM! He will be be back to CofB&F! - All details left out here!
  4. LoLz!, the way the flags and streamers are fluttering in the wind in @KPOs image posted above is quite symptomatic! - - - o 0 o - - - That said, I'm intended to buy more Berkshire next week, - dead serious meant.
  5. Some how this post of Sanjeevs [ @Parsads] skipped my attention yesterday, HaHa! - Great start on my day, Good Friday! - A public holliday here in Denmark.
  6. HaHa! <John, note to self, if ever banned on CofB&F, just start carpet bombing Sanjeev [ @Parsad ] with e-mails, to get back in!> HaHa!
  7. F*** it all! - War here and there? - Life is great, isen't it?! - [ I have to admit that I really have a problem with that sky! - Arrgghh!]
  8. Somehow, really kewl! LoL!
  9. Last week was a sad CofB&F one! Let's work on it never happens again! I personally hope to see @Xerxes around here again!
  10. @73 Reds, Let's move on, to get even more richer, by discussing, talking, more discussing with each other!
  11. I'm happy to see you around here on CofB&F again, @73 Reds ! Happy Easter to your family and you!
  12. Especially for those still defending POTUS' decisions and actions - are you out of your freaking mind?!
  13. I'm by no means sure I grasp the concept .. Does being filthy rich imply that your destiny is to be malodorous?
  14. It's clear to me, we have a real connaisseur on this matter among us in @BG2008 . Howewer I can't recall where we earlier have been talking about especially German kitchen knives [, at least I think it was]. Where?
  15. That's also right, @gfp, Just before noon the Lady of House offered to make us a great lunch for of both of us with beer, snaps, fish filets and boiled eggs with shrimps [Danish 'smørrebrød', English 'open sandwiches']. Asked for the steak knives to deal with the food, and duly noted for eternity, that cleaning of these knives is on me from here.
  16. Yes, lot's of hedging going on in agriculture, related to both input and output.
  17. Perhaps that is as many as 'none, zero, zip, nada'.
  18. Greenlandic Orla Joelsen on X today : Just the usual POTUS *BS* posted here, there and everywhere in MSM and on Truth Social.
  19. That's exactly right, @gfp ! They are in their own way simply master pieces! Simply a pleasure to get to know, and to work with, in the kitchen! -And they are quite different to European / German kitchen knives, which are much more sturdy! Japanese knives are indeed, as posted by you, fragile. I had to learn the Lady of the House a bit about how to handle the Takamuras : Never cut into a bone, never scratch anything of the chopping board with the knife edge [it ruins it], turn the knife upside-down, edge-up, while doing so! I'm actually myself buying about every second month a Wüsthoff classic black knife my self, delivered directly from Germany, from the factory web shop! Last delivery was some new steak knives about a couple of weeks ago! - Awesome! The Lady of The House still think I need treatment for my kitchen stuff hoarding gene [ ], but I have observed her, working with these knives in the kitchen, so I know she appreciates much the knives she now has access to, so money well spend. Never earlier in her life buying stuff like that was within what she could afford, before she - much incidentally -' bumped' into me! [<- Not sure at all, the wording 'bumped' is anywhere near correct English language! - But who cares, it's 1st April, right?! ]
  20. Thank you, @gfp, The striking thing is that eaxctly these two specific Takamura knives you are linking to are exactly the ones I have been able to get here in Denmark so far! Available by now here : Foodgear, Torvehallerne, Copenhagen : Takamura knives ['udsolgt' in Danish translates to 'sold out'] I've never been able to find a 150 mm or a 135 mm Takamura SG-2 Petty, so far, -ever. I personally don't think they are any better than other Japanese knife brands. I think I was attracted to the European style and design, while the knives as such are based on Japanse traditional knife smith workmanship. Friggin' sharpest knives I've ever had in my hands!
  21. I've been collecting Japanese Takamura SG-2 kitchen knives for about a couple of years, so far managed only to get two [yes, two!] of them! [buzzing @BG2008 here, who I know has a thing with quality kitchen knives, too!] [I have this thing with copper cookware, too - The Lady of the House is rolling her eyes, I'm sure she is thinking : 'What is wrong with this man?! '] These knives are incredible hard to find and to get! Just before Christmas I had to let a 21 cm Takamura SG-2 chef [gyoto] knife pass my nose in Copenhagen, because I had no money because of Christmas, taxes, stock hoarding, and, aannd, aaannnd ... a lot of other crap! Ugh! : What to do, when they are so scarce? Join mailinglists so you can get them, when there is 'a window open' somewhere on the planet to get them! So I'm mailinglisted at Canadian Knifewear! So today I received this email from Canada [ ] : Always nosy, I started reading, and shortly after I thought : ,'WT*?!' Then got to the last line :

  23. Let it go. I asked for a link.
  24. https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/116323481956698353 I'm not any longer going to post the contents of POTUS' posts from this medium. I refer to the posts upstream by Eric [ @cwericb ], no need to elaborate further. POTUS is simply a moron.
  25. Please provide a link to your source.
