Thanks, the fit and finish is amazing on it! The blade surface and edges are so polished you can even see the reflection of the screen across the blade in the background. Also, I may or may not have just stabbed my monitor while taking that choil shot... :oops:

A bit late to the party, but I'm loving my new Tsourkan right now.

Mystery solved! Apparently Marko got my knife mixed up with another that needed a saya made and it was kept back in the shop last week. He said it just got shipped out today and I'll be getting the tracking email soon. Big thanks to Eitan for reaching out and getting in contact with Marko for...

Hmm, I've seen some people already starting to receive their knives, and I haven't even gotten a tracking number yet (I already checked my spam folder). For people who bought from marko before, is this normal or should I contact him about it?

I dont have any experience with it, but I've heard good things about the Fuji Narihira line and have been meaning to try it out myself. Its manufactured by Tojiro and is supposedly identical to their DP line except for the steel, which is aus8 instead of san mai vg10. You could pick this up and...

I really shouldn't since I just bought a Hinoura AS, but...PM'ed

JKI was actually the first place I checked before starting the thread, but unfortunately it seems like almost all their western paring knives are sold out at the moment. I have several of them on notification but right now I'm hoping to see what other options are out there that are in stock...

So right now I've got a carbon mazaki gyuto and petty pair that I enjoy using along with a relatively semistainless santoku (takamura chromax) for when the girlfriend or guests are over, but I also need some suggestions for a smaller paring knife that would be shared use between myself and other...

I'll give you tree fiddy for it ;)
