So I put it through a couple of big carrots the other day. Smooth as butter, silent killa. I can’t think of anything it hasn’t performed well on.
All Rectangle March?

Dengjia is pretty good, underrated even, 65Mn at 58HRC maybe, tough as hell, need some work but looking at the bevel you already done itUsed a Chinese spatula Tonlage food today, a cheap Dengjia:
Negligently failed to picture the rectangles, but here's tonight's like Cantonese American takeout style spread, all from one of Kenji's cookbooks. Beef chow mein, velveted chicken with snap peas and lemon, soy glazed mushrooms, bok choy. Cooked at a buddy's house while visiting in Seattle.

I saw an eight minute old Facebook post from Robin Dalman announcing a couple of knive suitable for this thread. But do notice "eight minute" ... they were sold when I saw it and went to the web shop.

Omg, that spread looks INCREDIBLE.
Thanks it was pretty tasty and fun to make. All the recipes are from this book if you're curious:

Whoever got those Dalman rectangles, feel free to let me know when you’re done using those for ARM.
It's the local maker your neighbor who may or may not starts with B?
Could be the other guy with a name that sounds like a car part.
Still visiting home/friends in Seattle. Got to put together a nice middle eastern spread at the same buddy's house where we cooked up come Chinese food last night. This time it's grilled chicken shawarma with various salads and condiments (cucumber salad, hummus, baba, tzatziki, chili garlic sauce, etc.), turmeric rice, olives, feta, grilled zaatar onion, and pita.
Special appearance by the moritaka nakiri I picked up from @OyakoDont . Thanks, Ryan! This knife is a lot of fun.
Nothing like family, childhood friends, and good food.

Awesome. Thanks for sharing!
This one has helped me through the second half of ARM. Denka 165mm Nakiri.
It is the last of the 165 Nakiris I kept, usually they are too small for me. This one is, too. But it is a very nice specimen of Denka. Completely straight, very thin yet stiff. Grind is super lazy of course, but it works. The yellow stains are from fresh turmeric roots, those have a residue that is hyper sticky... looks wild, but works fine.
It still might end up on BST sooner or later...
Super tough HT and the stubby wa handle it comes with is great for comfort and balance.

I was browsing for used blades online, when I stumbled upon this one.
Early Sugimoto No. 1 (or Kiya?).
Does it even qualify as a rectangle? Seems more like a mezzaluna to me!

+1 for Kevin's talent for thinning cleavers. I can't tell you how good the Sugi #6 is that I picked up from him.
In fact, reading your post inspired me to bring out the cleaver this morning for breakfast burritos!

Didn't know ARM was a thing, yet I've been a rectangle guy for the past six years.APPROVED!
The power of ARM. Brings out your third post in eight years!!!
As for the number of posts, what's even funnier is that I'd been lurking here for years before even registering.
Let's change that.
I thought you all would get a kick out of this.
Two nights ago I woke up in a half asleep delirious state while our baby was being checked on. In the morning my wife told me I was mumbling nonsense about rectangles, trying to buy rectangles, and rectangle march… I’ve binged this thread over the past week.
