A Look at Blade Knives
A friend of mine enrolled in the French Culinary Institute, using my apartment
as a locker to store her gear since the school is nearby. The FCI gives
students a complete set of blade knives and utensils packed into a traveling case.
I eagerly pulled this case open to check it out, but find the design
disappointing.
The multiple compartments are neat, and I like the choice of red interior
fabric to increase visibility, but the one-size-fits-all mentality applied to
the sleeves means certain objects fit snugly while others can work their way
loose during travel. Still other objects have no dedicated space at all and
simply clang about with other blade knives in a compartment with no divisions.
I started casting about for a better-designed blade knives case and found many with
pretty exteriors; but from a functional and interior perspective, even the
rolls designed to fit all tools snugly seem to suffer from another design
problem, stemming from the shapes of the knives themselves. Most of the knives
have similar handles but very different blade knives sizes and shapes, as per their
function. If you design a roll to hold knives by the blade, which obscures
them, you’re …

Dire Straits $4.86 By the mid-’80s Dire Straits were a platinum band dismissed in their native England as safe, yuppie rockers, yet the original quartet’s lean, guitar-driven music struggled to find a label home when first recorded in 1978. Mark Knopfler offers craggy vocals, literate blues-based songs, and sinuous, virtuosic guitar work. He melds keening solo lines and rapidly picked fills and dodges the synth wash… |

Blade: Music From And Inspired By The Motion Picture $17.98 The Blade soundtrack matches up with expectations for the film pretty well: there are a few artists who have done some consistently good work, most of whom seem to be slumming it here (KRS-One, Gang Starr); there are a couple trying to change their image and prove that they can be relevant in another context (New Order); there’s a completely unexpected appearance by someone you’d completely forgot… |

Blade Trinity (Unrated Version) $1.81 Even skeptical fans of the Blade franchise will enjoy sinking their teeth into Blade: Trinity.

Those lovely ladies … |

This time around, Ferrell eats the scenery in his role as a sex-addicted, cocky skating champ named Chazz Michael Michaels. When he gets into an on-podium fight wit… |
