That might could work for me. I'm currently on a shapton 1k, JKI 2k, tsushima, umajiyama namito progression. I'd like to simplify and bypass the 2k soaker and jump to the namito. A stone in the 2k-4k range might be perfect.

Interested!

I'm interested in something. My tsushima bench just cracked and i'm looking for something to fill it's role in my progression, or something better. I usually finish on a namito. Will these satisfy my itch?

Interested in the petty and the sujihiki!

Because of the wide bevel, you can choose to use different areas of the knife for different tasks and materials. the impact of using the forward 1/3 of the knife results in laser city. Overall my generally inexperienced opinion is that this knife is my best performer, although I do find myself...

I have the 240mm ku in white #1. It performs fantastically and really is gorgeous. The best comparison I can make with my limited experience is that it cuts through food better than the takamura sg2 and feels significantly better while doing it.

PM

thank you for pushing me over the edge!

Interested in the Namito

Hello all, I am a kitchen knife and sharpening enthusiast that has used KKF as a lurker for some time now. Some of the most specific questions I've had have been answered here. I have finally taken the time to sign up because there is an item here (a whetstone) That I would like to purchase.
