    C-Grind honyaki gyuto US passaround

    Apologies for my late than preferred review. First and foremost, thanks to @SylvainM for offering the pass around of his work, and even a bonus blade to play with. Aesthetics For my style of cutting, I tend to favor flatter profiles and these would fit right into that group. I didn't weigh or...

    Cpm 10v gyuto passaround

    Allow me to get the easy part out of the way early. I thoroughly enjoyed this knife. Was it perfect, no. But pretty damn close. Handle My one knock would be about the handle thinness. A little bit more thickness would have been my personal preference. I'd be curious to see how a yo handle from...

    ABblades Gyuto Passaround

    My week with the knife was a very pleasant one. Lots of salads, a bit of stir fry and some chicken quesadillas. I was quite surprised that the height wasn't an issue for me. I'm on the shorter side of things and have a tall cutting surface. With that being said, I rather enjoyed the size and...

    Gyuto heel height

    Short guy with tall counters here. My preference is usually no taller than 55. I'd say my sweet spot is 53-54mm

    Best places in Japan to buy/make knives?

    I really like it. Very sturdy feeling, and the steel is quite hard. For being as rustic as it is, the quality is great. I define it as rustically charming. Thanks again!

    Knife Japan: What's notable, worth buying, etc.?

    My Okubo santoku showed up earlier this week. Only been able to use it once, but it's a very smooth cutter and pleasant to use. I will probably make a different handle for it, but overall, it's a fantastically lovely knife. This was my first purchase from Michael and I'm definitely hooked on...

    Best semi-integrals in the game

    Not trying to divert the thread too much, but the variance between handle material and tang would be the indicator of a semi-integral? I guess I was assuming a true integral had to be full tang and anything that wasn't full tang, was semi
