Hi all
I have a couple of old knives that i have been trying to identify for years. I thought i would post them here and see what i get.
The first is a dainty little 8 chef. Its very light and smaller than the 8 would suggest. It has an extremely thin blade that puts any "laser" Gyuto to shame and is a pleasure to use. I don't use it much as i dont gave a steel any more and it looses a stone edge in about 5 min.. With a steel in reach its fun and a real eye opener if all you ever use is a Japanese knife.
Can any one make out the name other than SIHONORE 84? I have always assumed it was a Sab or Sab variant of some sort.

The other is a boning knife i picked up at a goodwill years ago. I dont use it but its a nicely made knife. I love the little guy on it. It is kinda sharpened away but might he have his arm around a baguette? Anyone recognize who the little guy is?
