Enjoy your new purchase...but be careful because once you get the taste of satisfaction of working with a high quality knife you are just going to want to get more!

Here it is! It's not as sexy as some of the knives I see here but it's quite nice for my first Japanese knife. I can't get over how light it is compared to the Wusthof.
Here's a side by side comparison. Big difference.

Congrats! Now show some veggies you mean business!
"Big difference" is right!
Have fun with it!
the 440 is actually a heavier knife compared to most J knives. I guess it makes for a good transition,coming from Germans.
Really? I thought it was light as a feather. I can't imagine one being even lighter than that. Sliced through a head of cauliflower and cabbage like butter.
Wait till you hold a laser!
Great blade, love the profile. Did you choose Korin's 'initial sharpening' option?
