My new little toy (Shigefusa)

[augerpro]

Just got my new Shig! This thing is actually pretty beastly compared to my 210 Ginga. Taller, a bit longer, and of course thicker at the spine. Hard to believe they are both 210 gyutos. I'll like that weight I think. The handle is rather large though. Pretty reactive so I'm using mustard and lemons to try to tame it before I use it.

One of these days I should go back to old threads, do some homework and find out why Shigefusa gets so much hype...
