Hi All,
I want to get a new knife that I imagine will be my goto knife for chopping vegetables and scooping them into a bowl or pan. I have been grabbing my 6" cleaver recently and like the wider blade. I really don't want to go to a real cleaver, because I like using smaller knives, and I imagine this will be the knife I use for almost everything (we are vegetarian, BTW).
I have picked out three knives that have wider blades but are still not the size of cleavers, and I thought I could just get some thoughts (or bashing) about them. I expect my choices might not be popular here. I do like the fit and finish of shun knives, but I'd be happy to hear similar suggestions. So, the knives are: Shun Fuji 6 1/2" Nakiri, Shun Kanso Asian 7" Utility Knife, and Shun Kaji Double Hollow-Ground Sumo Santoku.
Thanks,
Burke
