This is so awe inspiring with radiant sweeping colors and then their reduced intensity in the reflection. Bumping up.

My husband cooks with the same fanatisicm that I shoot with a camera, he saw this just now and came running and talking about your "nice knives" like I have seen some people oogling cars. LOL :)

For what its worth, I dont think its your best shot - but the title is funny and that bottom little number looks wickedly sharp. I know you said you think its overrated - but I think thats why you have done so well. You evoked a snicker and its to the point, meets the challenge and the blue is pleasing to the eye. :)

Captured with gusto and interesting coloration. Congratulations on your top 20 finish.

Nice photo, and nice knife. Who is the maker? I have an Aritsugu Deba that I received as a wedding present. For the photo itself, I think I'd prefer to see the blade a bit less bright, so you could make out the markings of the steel. Also, a bit more DOF would be good - the bottom edge of the knife looks a bit OOF.

I would have liked to see the whole knife, and the bowl is stealing some attention.

Beautiful scene, but it looks over sharpened to me.

I think the knife is a lil too blown out but maybe thats just me, great concept and good luck in the challenge.

Great shot! One of my favorites from the challenge (scored it an 8). Perfect lighting & composition.

Bear_Music? Just saw he had a similar shot in "adulthood" and this one is equally nice, very interesting lighting. 7 from me.
