Exactly!If I'm breaking down 3 pallets of product, I'd love to have the Mizuno. You don't move quite as fast with it, but its designed to keep you going steady all day without fatigue.
i love this knife. if it were mine, i would thin it out, especially towards the tip, but it just feels good and right, as is. it feels very precise, just like a Heiji, and the edge retention is great, even better than my Singatirin honyaki. the Singatirin is a considerably more effortless cutter, as it's a thinner knife (imagine a Shigefusa, but thinnish) but the Mizuno sticks less, and does feel more precise. the general grind on the Mizuno really is great. i gotta get one, at some point. hopefully sooner rather than later, now that my wife has gotten a better job. i don't want to send it on, and am glad i have a few more days.
it is on its way to me, may be it arrives todayStatus?
This is taking a bit longer than expected. But I'm the last guy that should complain. I just hate shipping stuff.
got the knife in my hands.
Right TOB the knife is solid and feels nice in hand, compared to 240mm Kato, the Mizuno is a skinnier knife:
The knife has been sharpened a lot it looks but still looks pretty thin behind the edge, I'll see how it cuts later tonight
sure will shoot a few pics tomorrowIf you get a chance, can you do a side by side choil, and tip thinness comparison pic?
I had to stretch the list a bit. If you want to send it along sooner than a week, be my guest. No worries either way.
Because I have this weird thing about shipping I'm going to start it off with Danielsan because I'll drop it off when I see him on Sunday or Monday. And of course DeepCSweede will have to be last so he can drop it off at my place.
In order:
Danielsan
Theory
Eshua
Pitonboy
Edipisreks
Mainaman
Wenus
Chinacats
Chuck
DeepCsweede
Essentially everyone that PM'd me as instructed. Except DeepC, he's a homey. (Sorry I'm weird about rules. Mine anyway) When it comes back I'll send it out to everyone who responded in the thread.
About the knife: Don't judge a book by it's cover. Give it a chance to grow on you. I'll sharpen and polish it up as best as I can on Sunday.
Rick, if you want to PM danielsan with your addy that would be cool. I'll let you guys handle it from here.
