People ask me about kitchen equipment all the time, but most often it’s about a knife. People get excited about a crazy handmade Japanese blade or think they need some gnarly-ass knife to be a real chef, but unless you’re slicing sushi on a daily basis, you really don’t. I got this blade as a gift from my friend Andre, and it never left my drawer. There’s good clearance between the handle and the blade so people with larger hands or fat fingers will have room to chop, the tip is rounded so when you’re slicing an avocado while it’s still in it’s skin, you won’t cut your hand open, spilling blood on your eggs, and there even a hole punched in the tip if you’re the kind of person who likes hanging things on the wall. Whenever I bring my knives in to get sharpened, this Mac blade is the only one that the sharpener man feels compelled to compliment, a knifeman’s knife if you will. Also, at a hundred bucks, it’s perfect for your daily driver knife, you won’t feel the need to baby it like some hand-pounded tech bro carbon steel with a dragon engraved in the handle.

Get and keep a copy of a movie on a hard drive or Blu-ray somewhere. If you “purchase” movies through sites like Amazon Prime or Apple TV/iTunes (RIP) you’re merely licensing it and they can take away your access at any time for whatever reason they want.
I don’t advocate pirating movie content you don’t already own, but if you own a copy of a movie or show, go ahead and download a digital copy to back it up somewhere so they can’t take it away from you.
