Lurker trying to get better at steaks

-If I went to a restaurant what do I ask to get this doneness? And is my knife too dull, how do people get those perfect looking slices?

    Perfect medium rare! Good luck getting that at a steak house! You have gotten to the point where a steak house isn’t worth it anymore. Congrats! Now is your time to challenge everyone that you know. Assuming your seasoning is on point? Everyone in this sub focuses on perfectly cooked steaks. Taste matters now. Let’s go!!!

    Excellent.

    Yes, hit up /r/Sharpening for assistance with the knife.

    Great job, nice and juicy – i can see that you kept it low and slow. You would ask for medium rare and confirm “a warm red center”. For those clean slices, use a “real knife”. I cut my steaks with an old paring knife. It isn’t serrated and it works great.

    I don’t know exactly why, but the Duel of Fates song that plays during the Darth Maul fight from Star Wars was what played in my head when I saw this.
