This makes sense now. I emailed asking about a 210 suji. I’ve dealt with Gaku at TF a couple times. Now someone by the name of Miho emailed me back. Dental work got in the way of this purchase anyways.

Open to trades. 180-210 long petties/sujis or 210-225 gyutos. Semi stainless or ss clad. I should just order a tf 210 mab suji already lol.

Watanabe 270 still up for grabs for $380 shipped CONUS.

Shihan sold. I’m dropping the Watanabe to $380 shipped CONUS. Highly doubt any 270 toyama or wats are out there for that price. Open to trades Yoshikane, TF, sukenari, shihan stainless, any other semi-stainless. SS clad. 210 gyutos 180-210 petty/sujis

Shihan is on hold for now.

I’ve never really had any problems. I’ve been using his knives for a year or so and I absolutely love them so this is not an insult or anything towards him. I will say, when I first got the knife, looking at the choil, I didn’t think it would cut as well as it did. Boy was I wrong. If I cooked...

Haven’t been on the forum in a little bit. Hope everyone is well! I have two big guys that I don’t need anymore. I traded my executive roll for a traveling personal chef gig. Since then I have really only used smaller knives. I think these two are bigger than the cutting boards I have been using...

I really need one of those hisamoto one day! I’m itching for a TF mab again 😂

Damn I would love this right now. I really miss mine. I love masahi sld. Someone is in for a treat. GLWS

I actually thought about that one. Just because I could use some decent cheaper blades for work that are ss clad. I’m just hesitant with kohetsu. I bought one a couple years ago and it wedged in everything. The tip was horrible.

I really need to get more petties and 210 sujis. For now I only have a 190-200mm takada no hamono white 2 petty that is actually awesome for different butchery tasks. It’s pretty much all I use it for. Want something ss clad or semi stainless though. Maybe a wat 210 suji.

I think i’ll hold onto the nano hone as a stone for work. That thing is fast and could come in handy if no one wants it. the morihei uchigumori nagura $70 shipped.
