Its just a lot older. Probably 15+ years is my guess. Those 3 blades are not contemporary.

All he Ku is the same whether WH (JNS), Morihei or the standard without Morihei Kao or WH kanji. Courtesy @Markcg https://www.kitchenknifeforums.com/threads/mark%E2%80%99s-little-collection.52095/#post-790440

Well he DID learn from the best........

Kato Ku is no slouch either

Hammer marks in the blade road would make the TF police have a coronary.

TF/Morihei FTW. Now if only they could do a FF ironclad AS gyuto. That would be the💣 Reminds me of a JMW Turner painting

Ku.wl blue. What not to love. And it doesn't wipe off at an alarming rate.

Got a 200ml sample of this exceptional 18 year old from Tasmania. I need to try and source a full bottle. I could nose it for hours

For me the Jiro finish is flawed and confected. For that reason I am not interested in owning one. Some might like the disappearing Ku act but I find it unappealing that I knife has the potential to change its factory finish after every use.

And the bird gets premium bird seed. Is he still the bird about town? Such a cute little guy

Thats how I got my start with Jknives. I bought a Richmond gyuto from him. It arrived tipped and was returned. Only other thing I bought from the Dark Side was a Kono Fuji FM W#1. Another dud that got sold on tout suite. So I'm 2 for 0 with Mark.

I beg to differ. I find there is less stiction with a Ku finish vs a fully polished/migaki blade and this is one of the primary performance attributes. Could be a combination of the roughness of the blade surface and the properties of the Ku itself contributing to food release. Personally I...

Shows promise but at 42mm it's 3mm too big for me. Shame about the cheap looking 3Hz Seiko automatic or quartz movement?

My last pair of Jaybirds lasted 10 years. Great sound quality, sill, but battery life was suffering and after loosing the ear wing decided to try something else better suited for urban travel. They were also connected to one another via a wore so not as convenient as independent ear pieces.

Timely as I just researched new ear buds. I wear mine 50% while riding a bicycle and I don't like not being aware of my surroundings with other users around. That limits options to open ear designs and that is what I thought I'd buy. Then I stumbled across a really funky design from Sony. These...

TF Ku. It's the real deal. Product of the forge and pickling, not a paint pot.

My go to shipped sources for espresso beans, which all had a roast date on the bag and usually the same week it shipped. www.klatch.com www.caffelusso.com www.redbirdcoffee.com Then there is Intelligentsia that some like. I tried the Black cat and it was OK.

EH Taylor, Noahs' Mill, Elijah Craig 12 year old, Michters, Old Forester 1920 I thought Eagle Rare drank hot. Seems like a bit of an entry level Bourbon to my taste. Avoid Blanton's. Hyped and not very good.

Yup, dem robots can't get enough of that faux Ku.

PIE and HB are Olympic champions in that discipline.
