210 Nakiri

Any one got any thoughts on a 210? I think I saw Del did a run of some not too long ago. Any thoughts or reviews of that run?
Any other maker(s) do a 210? I'm not picky, it could be a cheapo.
Would love to try one out and/or buy one.

I had a Shig version of this.... I didn't use it (home cook)

Global has an 8 inch, but that's a lot of belly...

that does seem like a lot of belly for a nakiri, aren't they normally quite flat?

yup.

Get a chinese cleaver.

I have a Heiji that I really like, but I use it more as an all-arounder. It is much more substantial that my trusty MSC 165mm Nakiri which I think of as a laser.

I just got a 7" Wustholf Nakiri off the bay for $18 brand new, theres a guy selling factory seconds or something like that. It was a lot lighter than the 8" chefs knife I was used to from the same series and was a lot thinner metal. I didn't quite like it, so ended up gifting it to a stay at home chef for Christmas, sticking to the Takeda still, this thing is a veg-beast...everything from onions to squash.

the shig nakiri is nice. and that 180mm heiji nakiri runs long enough to be considered.

im still looking for a cheap cleaver (minor hijack lol)

disregard above comment, sorry (wish the edit timer was longer)

zakuri 180 nakiri seems like a great bang for the buck.
