Well, not sure how an old post wound up in this one, but the seafood pics were the intended ones and the commentary was meant to be 'did seafood party for 20 at the weekend. Smoked oysters with chipotle vinaigrette, tequila/Clamato oyster shooters, shima aji ceviche, scallop tacos with avocado...

Took the gyuoto to 1000 grit chosera tonight and then a suede strop with jewelry polish. I find the 5000 doesn't leave enough bite for long. Fun with a carrot ensued. Guess we'll have soup tomorrow as I still have celery and onions on which to take out frustrations with my teens.

It's lost some steel to the stones for sure, but I can't imagine it's been mm's. Might have just gotten a shorty, but no complaints. It's my daily go to and I'm happy with it. The Kato Workhorse comes out when things get really nasty.

Finally managed to find myself, the gyuto and a ruler in the same room at same time. Heel height is 50mm

Very valid point. Reason for asking is that his site showed a number of Keijiro Doi knives for sale and in stock. I spoke to him this morning and he said the website is out of date. Don't think he's necessarily trying to pull a fast one as he readily admitted that he doesn't have any and...

Thanks supersayan, wish I'd managed pictures of the rest of the meal before the kids devoured it all. The yanagiba made small work of tai and hirame carpaccio. Even lucked into a bit of fin on the fluke for a cheeky piece of engawa aburi when no one was looking! I can't speak to the...

Let's see if this works, first time I've tried it. Usually leave the social networking stuff for my kids. In my haste to get out the door this morning, I forgot to measure the height at heel, but will do so...

Thanks, will give it a go with photobucket or similar

I'll need to look for an FAQ explaining how to upload pics from an iPhone. I clicked on the picture icon above the text box, chose photos and selected upload pictures. I'm able to see the photos of i click on the attachments in the post so it's strange that you can't.

Anyone ever used these guys? Phoned customer service the other day and got a very canned answerphone recording with no mention of the company. I'm sure I'm being overly cautious and/or suspect, but the internet anymore encourages that. Many thanks, Brian

My Mizuno Tanrenjo 240 gyuto and 270 yanagiba, both in blue no 2. Amazing knives. Been trying some kasumi knives recently, and while enjoying them, keep going back to the honyaki blades. At the higher end, I'm not finding the clad knives to be that much cheaper than these, especially with b2...

Wife says okay. Will send pm

Rick/Kim, is it the old stock Usuba that you've got? I've looked at this several times on the JNS site, but don't know how much the difference is between the new and old stock. Chiefly, is old stock any sort of upgrade to new ones or just a higher price due to age. Thanks

Another one for popcorn...or for topping butter on bread....or salads and pasta...Bragg's Nutritional Yeast Noticed lemongrass is missing, as long as we're spending your money

Medallions of foie gras in the freezer for grating into hamburgers or finishing steaks in the lodge skillet Ponzu and yuzu juice for quick dressing over cured salmon with sesame seeds. Miso paste while I'm thinking of it Pine nuts Did you have block of Parmesan cheese on the fridge list...

Wouldn't be the end of the world if some would stay away. Others would just look longingly, nod knowingly and ask what's going on the smoker at the weekend.

I like your approach, but I still have a 12ga s/s, a .308 and a number for fly fishing reels that never truly made it home. At least when I owned the sailboat, she never wanted to go racing so a new main or spinnaker were never seen!
