    Recipe Requested Japanese curry powder! (Aka making S&B or better)

    If you decide to not make your own Japanese curry powder, this is a great alternative.

    Need some help buying an usuba

    I got it from hocho-knife.com, with no optional service. I should note that "very sharp" means relative to my expectations, and that the knife made my initial attempts at katsuramuki much easier than I expected (though obviously years away from competent).

    Need some help buying an usuba

    I have the Sabun ginsan kamagata 180mm and it is one of my favorite knives. Very sharp out of the box. For my home use, I can't imagine needing anything longer than the 180. It was very sharp out of the box, but I can't provide any insight into sharpening, as I haven't touched it up yet.

    Question about an Ebay user

    I've bought several knives from happu2015, mostly relatively inexpensive pieces. I've always gotten what I expected and I am happy with all of them. Good pictures; good communication. Shouldn't be a problem.
