Hi all,
I intend to order a Shig ASAP!!! :biggrin:
I live in Brisbane, QLD and just.....love knives. I got my first taste of a quality knife around a year ago when I was given a boxed knife set containing 2 Tojiro Flash knives. A 210mm Gyuto and 150mm Utility. I've never looked back. Reading up on caring for them I came across all manner of guides and suggestions so before I knew it, I'd purchased my first set of water stones. Since then I've purchased only 2 knives......when I decided to wade into the turbulent waters of Carbon Steels. A Tadafusa 165mm Santoku (Blue #2, SS Cladding) and a Tojiro Shirogami 120mm petty (White #2). So far, my purchases have been rather moderate to ensure I can care for the knives I buy. I'll be spending a little more on my next purchase, now that I have more confidence. Watanabe or Takeda are beckoning.....
Cheers
Paul
