Do I need two funyaki? Probably not, but when it is only 6000 yen for one, and I get to dethrone @SwampDonkey to become the leader of the cult, it's a no brainer.

On the side note, our Saint is really damn consistent, can't really tell much difference apart with the two funyaki.

At that price I should've asked you to bring an extra couple back for me too. Crazy good value there

Defiantly nottt dead flat

Tried to get the profile more flat belowView attachment 314077

Imo, dead flat stuff just doesn't work that well.

More likely to get a recurve when sharpening. Doesn't feel natural when cutting with them.

Do you have a cut video on something like bell peppers? On board that looks similar to a profile I had that was an accordion cutter’s dream.

Here’s choil and spine shots. About as lasery as lasery gets which may or may not be your cup of tea. As for food release and performance here a lil video:

Love the genuine final satisfaction

 

[plantgainz]

People are sleeping on those knives. Kobayashi‘s grind is one of if not the best convex grinds I‘ve tried from a Japanese maker. If only the Gyuto profile was better.

Totally agree

Big fan of a dead flat stretch towards the heel, but I've definitely adapted the way I cut to make it work. It's awkward and cumbersome otherwise.

Its on my list of **** i want to eventually try to figure out. I can barely use my smartphone.

And the nkd (aka unnecessary buys from Japan) continues:

Heard this ghosts through horse carrots and has better food release than Kobayashi. At 12000 yen, it's rude not to get it.

He only grinds R2 blanks right? Would love to see what he does with a top end B1 or W1 iron clad

Small world, he's one of my closers. Real miracle worker doing the Texas / Cali clopen

I love this one so much

 

[shobudonnie]

So this knife is supposed to have an edge that gets sharp like no other, and be able to hold that edge like no other, while still being plenty tough, and easy to sharpen. It does have a nice weight, is very stiff, appears to have a good profile, but not that thin. Kind of thick behind the edge also.

I’ve heard some people say this Bill Burke is one of the greatest knife makers to ever walk this earth, and able to heat treat his steel to the point where it has magical properties. I don’t know how great this dude really is, but here we go… let’s see what this thing can do.

I was eyeing this one on Epicedge. Baller!

Congrats! Awesome looking knife.

Hopefully it is all that… or it would’ve been a serious waste of money

I would be interested if you don’t like it. I just couldn’t pull the trigger at the full retail price…

Seems like you aren’t aware of what you are buying.
