Hey everyone,
So this might sound like a weird or silly question but I'm wondering how well using something like a Suji 240 to 270mm would work for all around kitchen use? This would be for everyday home cooking, once and a while a few larger meals for friends.
I have noticed in a few threads here and there that a couple users mentioned using a Suji as their main knife. This is also referenced in one of Jon's (JKI) video's on the Gonbei Hammered series I believe. Basically, I'm wondering how well this would really work in a home environment assuming of course that you understand the shorter height of the blade and have a grip/holding style that allows for this. Also, remember reading a few places about a user here (CadillacJ I think) using a Suji as his "go to knife" for just about all stuff.
It's a new concept to me and having never used a Suji before am wondering how feasible/wise this might be. I've been using my 180mm Petty more and more for stuff and find it to work very well for a large variety of tasks except when things get a bit too long (need more length).
Anyhow, any thoughts on this?
