Chef Tony

I so much appreciate Chef Tony. He is a very sweet gentleman who knows his products and gives necessary details. He's low-keyed and not 'over the top.' Of course, this is just my opinion but I hope others feel the same way. Thank you for letting me express my opinion. docsgirl

I appreciate the fact that his finger nails are always clean. Can't say the same for the Kansas City Steak guy. Just 'once' in 20 years you'd think he could get it together. That's a reason I don't buy.

I'll tell you 1 thing about Chef Tony. His serrated steak knives that never need sharpening are the BEST ! I got a set of 4 one time and went online and bought 8 more. Been awhile ago don't know if they still sell them or not. I've never had to buy new ones.

Thumbs up for the knives. Got his dicing bowl thingie, also. He's got good stuff.

A while ago somebody posted on here that she use to see Chef Tony at her State Fair demonstrating kitchen products. Nice guy - graduated to the Q. (smile)

The serrated knives that Chef Tony had on QVC were the best. I only had two of them from a set that I had I purchased years ago. I used them constantly until hubby accidently threw out one of them in the trash. I didn't notice it was gone until much later and by then it was too late to retrieve. I've since hidden my only remaining knife from my hubby. Lol!

I searched for another set through both QVC and Amazon but neither had those knives available for purchase. I ended up buying a couple from OXO. They are okay but no where near as good as the original Chef Tony knives.

I forgot to mention another thing I appreciate about him. Whenever the host mentions how many of an item have been sold, Chef Tony always says, 'Thank you, everybody.' He's so gracious and the consummate gentleman. I'd like to know more about the knives as I'm desperately in need of new knives. Mine barely cut paper. Thanks so much.

I also like Chef Tony and have purchased things he sells. Always pleasant and "please" and "thank you" go a long way.

@docsgirl this is so true, he has been on the air for many years (enough to get jaded) and yet he is always his wonderful, pleasant self each visit. I am so glad he is on QVC!

Very polite and appreciative and he doesn't do the "hard sell." He explains and demos the products very, very well.

Is he really a chef? Or just a chef to sell gadgets?

I mean really; I could be chef faeriemoon.

I can't say for sure since both QVC and HSN seem to call almost everyone selling kitchen items "Chef." I know he did have a cookbook out, but don't know if it was ever on QVC. Have seen him in infomercials too.

I also appreciate Chef Tony and I found something out about him I never knew. In a very lovely Facebook post on Easter (I believe) he was so gracious about his wife and family and he mentioned the 'demons' he dealt with one of which was addiction.

I never knew this about him.

I don't know if it was food/drugs/alcohol/other, but I'm so glad he overcame it. He truly is my favorite guest on QVC.

I wish he had his own cookbook.I saw a book he had years ago in a store about tips about cooking.
