They look interesting. Anyone familiar with Genkichi? Some of them are Blue #1 which is interesting and they are actually auctions.

I have been using this knife for the last few days. Quite a pleasure... lightweight belies it's strength. A real multi purpose tool. I love the tip and the flatter profile. Nice feel of the handle. The additional blade thickness is a comfort as my usual hamfisted technique doesn't seem to phase it. Sharp and pretty, right ootb. Cuts onions, carrots, tomatoes, salmon; smooshes cloves of garlic for peeling. Love the sound of this steel as it works. Very nice, so far no issues.

Cheers,

RW

Sounds like you have a great knife,enjoy:knife:

There are a few more stainless 240mm Sakai Yusukes on eBay. Extra hard, but not extra thick or flat profile. I rather like the standard profile. Very flat with just the right amount of belly.
