I have a friend who will be travelling to Japan around Feb, and i've asked her to help me get a knife.
I've decided to ask them to help me get a Masamoto Yanagiba and have it opened up for me.
Since they're not familiar with knives, i plan to write what i want, along with instructions (in japanese) on a piece of paper so they can pass it to the people there.
Is there any flaw in my plan? Anything i should take note of?
What kind of prices am i expecting if were to get direct from the Masamoto shop in Tsukiji, compared to our dealers?
