Great knife!
I bought this knife as replacement for one just like it that was abused on a granite cutting board for 20 years. The old one was a great knife (made in China) and I expect this one will be even better as It was made in Spain (Toledo steel?). The knife will serve as a universal kitchen knife cutting everything but bread (I buy bread already sliced - and that's the greatest thing since . . .)
At the end of the dat, it's a GREAT knife!

“A Summons to Memphis” by Peter Taylor, 1986
“A Summons to Memphis” by Peter Taylor, 1986
Here we have wealthy eighty one-year-old dad wanting to marry a much younger woman. The two daughters fear for their inheritance. Dad and daughters live in Memphis. Our protagonist is the son who lives in Manhattan. The son is, of course, summoned to Memphis. In two hundred pages of digression we have a biographical sketch of the Carver family et al. I have read elsewhere that this is a biographical sketch of the author but this is beyond the scope of my interests. What does interest me are the “truths” and insights that I found between the covers:
The father set out to dissuade his daughter from her chosen “young man”. Dad begins by reviewing, in depth, all of the “young mans” positive attributes. Only after this does Dad begin to point out the young mans grievous defects.
Me think there be a powerful message here . . .
There is a difference between "enduring" a situation or circumstance and "dealing" with it . . . (and then, of course, there would be anticipating said situation or circumstance and deciding to take a “pro active” position).
. . . the best human being is that one who adjusts best to the changing circumstances of life . . .
“Forgetting the injustices and seeming injustices which one suffered from one’s parents during childhood and youth must be the major part of any maturing process.”
I liked this book, as there was much to think about.
I am giving it five stars
