Concept-wise, it is essentially a pre-worn Excalibur coating. Pic related:
>If a spatula or other metal object is scraped over Excalibur, it simply skips over the stainless-steel “peaks” unable to gouge out the nonstick coatings in the “valleys”.
The difference is that you can get a 12" Excalibur-coated skillet from a restaurant supply store for $15. And it's not pre-worn.
>>
>>21801003
Just checked my email. I ordered two Excalibur-coated 12" skillets in 2018 and two Excalibur-coated 8" skillets in 2020 from a restaurant supply store.
I have used them heavily and I still have all of them. They are still all nonstick and none of them have scratches or flaked Teflon. The system shown in >>21801003 works. Those little stainless steel pellets keep that shit on the pan.
IIRC at one point Allclad was using Excalibur on its nonstick products. It's fucking rad.
So yeah, Hexclad is a scam. Just get some cheap shit from a restaurant supply store instead.

I've been getting ads for those things on YT for years whenever Google figures out how to get past my adblockers, they're a manosphere tacticool version of the old "it can cut a can then slice a tomato" knife commercials that used to play late at night.

>>21799187
That's really common, you used to see tables with "handmade" knives at gun shows and you'd see like 3 of the same "handmade" knife on different tables at the same show. The modern equivalent is selling "handmade" stuff on Etsy/Amazon/etc. I can practically guarantee the sheath is from the internet and there's a good chance that the scales came with the knife if not already on it. Frankly I'd reconsider how much I trust that friend. Do you know how much they paid for it?
>>

>>21800361
>Do you know how much they paid for it?
Way too much, enough to get a very decent production knife. The guy is my parents' good friend's boyfriend, but not close himself. I have, for what it's worth, talked knifemaking with him before and he mentioned putting handles on blanks so I assume that's the deal, especially because the scales are noticeably nicer than what I'd expect for the blade - I've seen those show booths so I know what you typically get.

>>
>>21798190
my uncle fell for this meme and got me one of these. the blade's sharp enough right now, but most new knives are.
what's the hole for? i tried putting my finger in it and it had jagged edges that could definitely draw blood if i used it long enough. my uncle says it's for hanging it somewhere. i thouth it'd be for control since the handle is pretty thin and flimsy
>>
>>21800988
>I thought it'd be for control
And you'd be right. You sometimes see it on /k/ and /out/ knives and that's the image they're trying to present which is why their marketing is "bad ass" and rugged guys with beards, at least from what I've seen. Hell, someone mentioned Coolina Knives earlier ITT and that's a name I haven't yet seen these knives marketed under so I went to their site and I'm seeing stuff that looks like copies of common mallninja shit presented as kitchen knives. They also definitely used to sell the knife in OP's pic, it's in some of their pics but no longer on their site. Those things seem to be sold under like half a dozen names, I had no idea this was so widespread.

True. But you and I know this already. Still didn't stop me from buying two titties for 49¢/lb on Tuesday, even if I got proper turkeys 25¢/lb then another turkey practically free because of couponing.
You said you just roast one every month or so, right?
I break ours down, use all the backs and wingtips to make stock roasting one whole breast for Thanksgiving and freeze everything else. Curries and soups with the drums, pulled turkey and ground turkey made from thighs so they don't suck, smoked turkey wings for beans and greens and the breasts generally get deboned and cooked into turkey stews, pot pies or turkey and dumplings.

In Texas:
- Some kind smoked meat common, usually brisket or Turkey
- Tamales are a classic. These are meat and sauce covered in masa dough, steamed in a corn husk. Dead ringer that your family has been in Texas for a while if you do this and aren't central American
- My family always had guacamole every year, but I don't know how common that is. My wife I don't do this as adults.
- Standard American Christmas fare like roast meats, green beans, mashed potatoes, dinner rolls, etc all common as well. But I feel like these are getting less common since the Texan dishes are much better anyway?
This year my wife and I did smoked tenderloin, mashed potatoes, roast carrots, and some duck tamales using a bird I shot a couple weeks ago.

Flax isn't good for high heat, period, even if heavily refined. Gently refined or cold pressed avocado oil, ghee, or quality peanut oil are best non-seed oils for high heat including seaoning cast iron. Unrefined or non-chemically refined quality peanut oil doesn't really count as a seed oil.

whats the easiest way to skim fat from a sauce/soup
>>
>>21799927
I usually just do the chill method, or if the I don’t want the soup to be cold and the oil is on top I’ll use some facial tissues to soak the oil up (they seem to work fairly well for wicking up the oil without also absorbing the soup itself).

I’ve seen the ice method a lot but never tried it.
>>
>>21799927
Spend $5-10 on a stainless steel fine mesh fat skimmer. Place an empty bowl adjacent the vessel you're skimming. In a series of motions, slide the skimmer just barely under the fat on the surface and dump the skimmed fat into the bowl until there are only traces of fat left, if any. Din't waste time improvising with some other approach, there's a good reason fat skimmers are so popular.
