This isn’t new but I am an sas guy. I tried literally every shoe in this thread plus some and sas is the current champ for me. Everyone’s feet are so different not to mention how you work and carry yourself. I used to like Mozo before they sold out. I also liked keen and honestly still like...

I like killing flies

Bst is now complete.

I too was following along to see if there was anything to learn. I love my ryusen which I guess isn’t a flavor many care about lately. I have no other sg2/r2 to compare although I have sharpened a few mentioned in this thread. I have more useful thoughts on sharpening them then performance...

Not to rain on this parade and it’s interesting to see this is a “new” thing or just something not often discussed but it is often seen in professional kitchens. I personally hate it but I get it. The thing I like about is customizing your own things to suit your needs and issues.

goodluck I’m not selling mine but I have been very surprised I didn’t see more interest around these parts

Ya know I wish there was more opportunity to hear makers talk a bit about their process. That might be the best part of these “mass drops” bc whether I get picked or even if I don’t put my name in it’s a unique glimpse into the makers process.

They will make an obvious post… it will include more facts and let you know the details for how to get a chance to purchase one. You might want to look through the old threads… you can just look at nakiri’s past posts

Since I never got to join you cool people who got picked… some who were picked for both… maybe just maybe I can hold out hope that when this finally happens I can possibly find a way into one of these. Like a fungus I will lurk in the shadows. On a real note it’s just great to hear anything...

I use them and in professional setting. I have one or two that are basically retired from use/thinning/sharpening. I use those at home now and again. I however get the pleasure of being a naive idiot. Just playing with my toys in the yard. I also somehow got into this before a lot of the hype...

It been a very long time since I really thought so hard about buying a knife on here.

Just a thought but why test an edge on paper if plan to cut tomato. Just test your edge on tomato.

Haha imo that ochazuke is a spot on post.

Wait are you saying people aren’t using their tools at work.... that’s blasphemy. I personally buy the knives only for the boxes. Not long ago I worked with a guy who sported a well loved Kramer but that’s the only one I ever saw in the wild. Also the guy having knife parties with 4-5 random...

I don’t know how I missed this but this site has taught me so much. First I was into knives and thought I had a knife problem. Then I was into stones and I definitely had a stone problem. Today I finally realize I was into boxes the whole time.
