hey y’all finally decided on my next knife after months of debating lol. If any of you guys have and are willing to part with either a 180 or 210 or 210 ktip gyuto yoshikane sld I’d be highly interested

Sorry it took so long but thank you once again so much for the knife roll. It’s made my life a million times easier already

Beautiful knife glws

I wish the blue 2 wasn’t stainless clad or I’d be interested. I’m a big fan of powdered steels lately so I’d just buy something of that variety instead. But price point seems reasonable on both options. I’d personally just get the mazaki I’ve been waiting to pull the trigger on but were all...

Do you know if the mtc ones come with a kanji? I thought I heard something along those lines before but I’m not positive. I’m really considering buying one of the Uchigumo pettys and trying it out then decide if i like it more than sld and sell but I’ll probably just end up keeping both and...

If you had the option of both available to you to buy, which would you choose? I find it hard to believe the Uchigumo could be a better knife but I’m willing to be proven wrong. My experience with yoshikane tho is top notch. I just don’t want to lock myself into one knife when there’s so many...

Is that pretty much the only way to get them? I saw a 130 and 150 petty on mtc. Are these the same as the regular Uchigumo because they’re listed as hsps Damascus instead of Uchigumo. I want to say I recall reading they lack the kanji as well which in my eyes doesn’t really bother me because...

I’m not so much looking for new recommendations as much as I am interested in hearing if anyone has tried both the sld yoshikane vs the Takamura r2 Uchigumo. It would be for a 180-210 size For more precision and delicate work. I already own a yoshikane sld Hakata ,and I love it. However, I’ve...

How is this still here? Awesome knife I bought a 210 after your recommendation beautiful knife. I have yet to experience a better fit and finish

No it’s not this is a knife made by Chauncey billup lol jk

One of each 4oz here

I’m looking for the jns 1000 if anyone has one gathering dust let me know.

Have you tried his other synthetic red aoto? Or has anyone? Is their much of a difference between them. I would email maxim but he does not have the quickest response time

What numbers are appropriate for knives normally. I guess what I’m asking is there a preferred sweet spot you look for stones at like between 28-32 or something like that or does it just depend on the user preferring hardness to softness. I just assumed the stones that cost the most were the...

How does one actually read the scale. Some rated in 20s some in the 30 what does that actually mean I’m a total newbie on that kind of stuff
