 After reading this thread I realized that my old IKEA knife wasn't enough anymore.

Bought this yesterday, a Satake No Vac (21cm = 8 inches). So far so good, and I've only cut myself twice...



EDIT: Wrong length, corrected.

Wait, I read this thread and all the knife chat in the product thread; I can't remember anything like that being suggested.
It is a hilarious knife indeed.

edit: "All knifes from the serie No Vac has an incredibly smart anti-vacuum edge and that makes commodities will release directly from the blade. The knifes are available with handles in plastic and rosewood. A soft blade steel makes it easy to maintain the cutting edge."

Bolding mine, I never really had that much problem with a huge vacuum force sticking food to my knife.

No you're right, nothing similar has been mentioned here. I read a few swedish tests and forum posts where they recommended it at that price range.
The No Vac-thing is just a silly gimmick, seems to do jack poo poo. I'm really satisfied with it so far though, it's tons better than my old one.

Last but not least, they sure as hell didn't go for the classic look. I think mediaphage nailed it:

Like, it's the knife they used in kitchens in Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow. The knife that Alfred uses to prepare Bruce Wayne's tea in the animated Batman series.
