Nice stuff!! Thanks for sharing
Yes, and here's to the unabashed Cutco exhibitionists!
:rofl2: Looks like a great kid knife for bananas n such. Lemme know if you ever want to get rid of your Carter. I'm looking for one just about that size....Please note that I have included my letter opener in this photo. After countless times being used as a knife by family, it is an honorary knife in my house, but about six months ago I finally labelled it to clear up the confusion and prevent it from going into the dishwasher...
Wow! That cleaver turned out really, really well.
Have you wacked anything with it yet? Turkey carcass for stock? Trees for firewood? Zombies for fun?
What's the steel? Mystery, vintage carbon? Convex edge?
Mr Drinky, I noticed you said your Tanaka santoku was made with SG2 steel but in fact it is R2.
I have the 240 Tanaka gyuto in R2 and I feel it is one of the best knife steels out there.
Unless I'm mistaken, Tanaka ran through a few different steels for that particular line. I'm pretty sure there's a cowry x version out there in addition to sg2 and r2

However, my Grandmother just died a couple weeks ago and she had a whole set of Cutcos mounted on the wall, and I came really close to taking them, but then I though I would never get rid of them and I would have to live with them forever.
k.
I just went to EE to drool over Tanakas. All sold out. Thank god!
Do not look at Japanesechefknife.com then or you will be sorry!
I forgot that Koki carries these (he already owes me a Masamoto KS gyuto and petty, so I have been staying away from his website until they arrive).
Turns out "The Best Things" carries the line as well. And they look pretty good. Prettay, prettay, prettay, pretty good.
