    Confused between a Gyuto and Nakiri

    Finally the Watanabe Nakiri 180 mm arrived yesterday. Looks pretty big, but was surprised as it felt very light in the hand. The knife itself looks so awesome that haven't yet made any cuts with it. This weekend booked to learn about sharpening and proper care/maintenance of the knife.

    Thanks for that one Mike. I do have a wooden (less than 10 USD) and a simple synthetic board. But nothing of exceptional quality. I am a home enthusiastic chef with max 1 hour of knife use per day (People please don't laugh on that number)..:(
