Wusthof Le Cordon Bleu Knives

Both professional chefs and discriminating home cooks are familiar with the superior performance of Wusthof knives, but Wusthof has surpassed its own high-quality culinary tools with the creation of the Le Cordon Bleu line. This knife collection combines Wusthof's almost 200 years of forging expertise with input from the world-renowned Le Cordon Bleu School of the Culinary Arts in Paris, established in 1895. The result is a knife that looks similar to Wusthofs Classic line but with much-improved features that are aimed to appeal to a high-end, professional customer and home cooking enthusiast alike.

Highlights

Black synthetic handle. Designed for people who prefer lighter knives.

Cutlery made in Heaven
By Cajun Lady
As senior citizens, we are overjoyed with the Wusthof Le Cordon Bleu Hollow Ground 8-inch Chef's Knife which we purchased through Amazon.com because of its quality, shape, balance and sharpness. It seems to glide through the food we are preparing. The steel is finely honed to slice the food smoothly. There are no ragged edges with this knife! My wife's right hand is injured and she has lots of pain in it. This knife allows her to use it without adding to her discomfort. We recommend it to all cooks - young and old! Enjoy!

Le Cordon Bleu Knive
By Cinnabon
This is a really sharp knife, it is a little lighter in weight than the classic, but fine for my small hands.

Great knife
By Alan Simon
I've had my eye on this knife for years. Finally decided to pull the trigger after using my chef's Le Cordon Bleu set. Couldn't be happier with this. The balance is superb and the lighter design from what Wusthof normally provides is spot on. The hollow ground it's great for both speed and precision as nothing holds to the blade, even cucumbers. Highly recommended for both professionals and amateur cooks alike looking to improve their game. Next will be the paring knife. I personally run this across my steel (slightly higher steel grade than the knife) before and after each use; the blade is still as strong as it was out of the box. All in all, go for it and grab one of these!

Excellent Customer Support
By larry fine
I had this pressure washer sitting brand new and unused in my garage for nearly two years when I finally got around to using it. I had a problem with it where after starting the engine I'd get high pressure for about 3 seconds and then the water flow would stop altogether, while the engine kept running. I called the 800 number in the manual, and they put me through to an engineer who knew what the problem was - a "check valve" near the outlet hose that got sticky after the item sat unused for two years. He walked me through how to remove the valve and clean it up, and after that it worked like a charm, and has since then. The tech guy was obviously intimately familiar with every nut and bolt on this machine, and could immediately diagnose and clearly explain how to fix the problem. He offered to send me a new valve no charge, but it wasn't necessary. The Honda engine starts easy every time. I wouldn't have thought to review this product, but I was so impressed with the tech support that I just had to give some credit where it's due.

I am enjoying this receiver!
By Elizabeth S.
After much research, I finally decided that this was the receiver for me! So far, so good.I am primarily using this in the car, so I grabbed this version that included the car kit. If you only want one receiver but want to use it in two cars, you will need an extra car kit. It's too annoying to try to move the antenna between cars. I had looked at a few portable units, but I chose this one since it was designed primarily for those in the car, and I wanted the a unit that was going to be easy to use when I'm in the car.Installation was very easy. I did it myself, and my antenna is on top of my roof near the front. The antenna cord is about 24 feet long, so there is plenty of extra cord if you are in a sedan like me. I ran my cord right under the weatherstripping on the front windsheild as was suggested at cruchfield.com, then through the door and around the door jam. The kit also includes one of those little tubes that you can fit around your cords, as you will have three: antenna, power and the cassette. All cords plug into the base.I used the air vent base installation instructions (the kit also comes with dashboard mount and a swivel mount, but both can damage your car when you're ready to remove the mounts). The only thing is that I wish it were a little more steady from side to side when I am pushing the buttons. It takes some playing around with to get just right.The receiver itself has been pretty easy to use. I definitely recommend actually reading the instructions on how to use all of the different buttons. There are 30 memory buttons available. There is also a neat feature that will alert you to when your favorite artist or song is playing, and the alert will allow you to go straight to that channel if you so desire.One downside is that only the buttons have a backlight. The labels above them do not have these lights. So, until I get to remember exactly where the "jump," "memory" and "menu" buttons are, it's going to be to difficult to use them in the dark.There is also a 30 minute record/replay function on this receiver. However, anything you save is erased when the unit is turned off.I tracked this item for a few weeks before I bought it, as I noticed that the price occasionally would change from day to day. Amazon's price when I bought this three days ago was $93.99, and today it is listed about $3 less. Some third party merchants have dropped the price below the Amazon price from time to time, but generally, the Amazon price has been the lowest.If you buy this item before the end of April 2006, there is also a $30 rebate available from XM.Although I have not actually been a Sirius subscriber, I took advantage of the online trials with Sirius and XM. I also read some reviews of both and examined their channel guide. Their offerings are very similar. If you are interested in sports, XM has great college ACC/Pac 10/Big 10 channels (I am a UNC grad, so I have to have my ACC sports!), NASCAR and MLB. Sirius offerings are more towards NFL/MLH fans. One review I read said that the music on Sirius tended to be what he phrased as "riskier," which the reviewer defined as playing more deep cuts, etc. I have been very, very pleased with the XM offerings, playlist, variety, talk, etc. No complaints with XM here!

Quality receiver with quality service
By Gaz Rendar
I've owned this XM receiver with car kit for several months now and I can tell you that it has met or exceeded my expectations in every category.INSTALLATIONThe receiver mounts easily enough in one of my air vents in the front dash. From there I run a direct stereo line out into my AUX input jack on the front of my car CD player. The antenna has a strong magnet and is easy to get on the top of your car. The installation took me about 10-15 minutes total, with no tape or tools and it is completely reversible.FEATURESThe receiver itself is great. The large jog-dial, in conjunction with the Menu button and XM button, controls most of the selections you'll have to make. You can set 3 sets of 10 presents. You can display song info on the screen in two different ways. There is also a feature to run a real-time stock ticker or sports ticker with your selected stocks or teams at the bottom of the screen. All things and other receivers being equal, this feature sold me over other receivers and Sirius.The last main feature in the SkyFi2 is TuneSelect. You have 20 slots to store artist and song info. Say you're listening to Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit." You just hold down the XM button for 2 seconds while its on and it's stored into memory. You can then set TuneSelect to either "artist" or "song." If it's on song, whenever Smells Like Teen Spirit begins to play on any of the 150+ channels, the receiver will beep and you can hit the XM button to jump to the channel that's playing it to catch the song from the beginning. If TuneSelect is on "artist," anytime ANY Nirvana song is being played on any of the 150+ channels, the receiver beeps and tells you which Nirvana song just started. You can once again hit the XM button and jump to that channel. You can store 20 songs or artists this way.SERVICEThe XM service has been phenomenal, and better than I expected. I live around downtown Chicago, and I always get XM signal--even on lower Wacker Drive. This is because XM has set up terresterial signal emitters on the ground in metropolitan areas that are in the shadow of skyscrapers and tunnels. I have also taken it on 300 mile highway trips and always get XM signal. The service is great. After you have it, it's like cable TV, you can never go back to just broadcast TV. Commerical radio is horrendous compared to XM.The one caveat of signal quality is how you get the signal from your XM receiver to play over your car stereo. If you use a direct line-in like i do, your signal will always be perfect. If you use the FM modulator (set your car radio to 88.5 FM and the XM receiver to broadcast on that channel) you're in for a crapshoot. In downtown Chicago, there is so much interference that FM modulators for anything, satellite radio, iPods, anything--will not work. In fact, when most people complain that the XM or Sirius signal is lost, the receiver doesn't lose the signal; the car radio can't pick up the FM modulation signal. So if you can only use the FM modulator to get the signal from the XM receiver into your car radio, I would tell you to pass on getting satellite radio if you live in a dense metro area (NY, LA, Boston, Chicago, etc). Otherwise, I fully endorse this product, it is outstanding.

Great Receiver, East to Install
By TMac
I've had a SkyFi receiver in my home for over two years now, and am addicted to Satellite Radio -- it's all I listen to now. When we leased a Lexus RX 330 that did not have Satellite radio pre-installed, we purchased this receiver and car kit for it. Initially, I was concerned about trying to install the antenna on the roof of the car (the instructions that come with the kit are necessarily vague concerning how to install the antenna on the car roof, because each car is different). I did not know if I could do it myself, or if I would have to pay a professional to install it. Well, I decided to try putting the antenna inside the car, on the dashboard, rather than trying the more complicated roof-top installation, to see if it worked. I placed the antenna on the dash as far forward as possible, and stuck it in place with a little museum wax. I hid the antenna wire easily in the seam between the dash and the side of the car, and then strung the wire below the driver's side floor mat. It works great! Every now and then, the signal drops off when you make a turn or go under a bridge, but it's only momentary and no different than the drop off I got on regular radio. Indeed, it does not seem to happen any more frequently than in my other car, that had XM pre-installed with a roof antenna. The receiver plays through the tape deck in the car, and the reception is strong and crystal clear digital. (One of the other reviewers complains of poor reception when played over the FM radio -- that is only necessary if you don't have a tape deck, and I haven't tried the FM broadcast signal myself.) All in all, we're very pleased by this receiver and car kit, and wouldn't know what we'd do without it.
