Ahh. I want the Ryusen Blazen in 270 or 240, and thought the akifusa would be a fallback. Now I have a decision to make.

I'm heading to Chiang Mai for 5 days and Bangkok for two in January, want to get a follow on this. Also, I kind of want a halfway decent cleaver for when I make stock, I won't use my blazen on bones. My wife grew up in Thailand and we have extended family there, so having Thai stuff in my...

As another noob who bought a 210 blazen gyuto and wished it was a 240, but couldn't afford a second blazen so he bought a tojiro dp 240 instead - you really do get what you pay for. If I'd never used the blazen, I'd think the tojiro was amazing. And really, for 60 bucks, it is. It's just that...

Just a heads up, I went in to the store today after buying a Blazen and the Chefsteps stones last week because I noticed they didn't apply the forum discount to my whole purchase. I was told that the discount was only on knives, not stones. Did I get bad information, or has something changed...

Having a nice knife is pretty much amazing. I don't have much to compare this to, but I've been having a blast with it. My only complaint is that veggies seems to stick to the side of it a lot more than what I'm used to, but it's a very small complaint. Thank you all for your help. I haven't...

I never thought I'd see the day when the pro GMO people were more annoying than the anti GMO people. Is it too much to ask to just ignore it and let it go if someone doesn't want to eat GMO canola oil? My go to homemade salad dressing: It lasts a long time, is very tasty, and I'm pretty...

Er. I think I've landed on the one I linked, not the EE one. Though the knife you linked is absolutely gorgeous and exactly what I want, that's a bit more than I want to spend. Maybe if it's on the BF sale. :) Going down there now and excited.

I don't think I'm going to be able to wait a few months, but it's good to know those knives are usually included in the BF sale, as there are a couple more knives in the set I'm going to want eventually. After sleeping on it I think I've landed on the EE Bu-Rei-Zen.

Sweet. My library system has that book, I'm picking it up tomorrow. Along with about five other books on knife technique and care. I've got two weeks of vacation coming up soon, sounds like a good time to indulge a new obsession.

Damn. That's pretty impressive.

Hi. I'm a novice home cook who has started to enjoy cooking more and more as I've done all the cooking for our household for the last year and a half - pregnancy and having a new baby hasn't agreed with my wife's energy level, so I just took it over - one less thing for her to worry about. As it...
