    Help me decide on a gyuto please

    I've had my eye on it for some time, is it actually worth it? Adding import/tax it should cost about 600 pounds, which is in budget, the hinoura is like 290 pounds and AS. Is the mizuno really better than the hinoura if you exclude the profile?

    Help me decide on a gyuto please

    Why is it you choose the kurosaki over the hinoura and the makoto over both of them and the mazaki? Different steels, I would prefer carbon unless the makoto sg2 is that good

    Takamura Migaki R2 or JCK Deep Impact 210mm Gyuto

    I have the jck deep impact. It takes a very nice edge, handles rock chopping nicely, no chipping, F&F is actually very good, if you want to nitpick there's nothing you can't fix in 10 minutes with some sandpaper. Keep in mind it is carbon unlike R2 which is stainless

    Hap 40 vs honyaki

    I bought a sukenari zdp189 gyuto recently, very happy with it. I want to explore other steels and I recently saw a sukenari hap40 kiritsuke. I want to try a kiritsuke style gyuto and the sukenari ticks both the exotic steel and the kiritsuke gyuto boxes. It's out of stock everywhere except a...

    Konosuke GS vs GS+ opinions?

    I havent used either, but i can tell you that if the gs feels better in your hand it is what you should go with. You can hone the gs and it will keep its edge for a long time.

    Gyotu advice

    I don't go through bones but I see what you mean. I recommended the victorinox fillet knife because the way we do it (it's how I was taught) is a) diagonal cut (towards the head), just behind the head, then move towards the tail keeping the knife basically on the bone. b) down behind the...

    Gyotu advice

    I don't work with fish a lot and I haven't used a deba, but I don't see how you can remove the bones from your fillets without using tweezers. Can you show me a video of what you mean?

    fu-rin-ka-zan zdp189

    my father offered to make me a handle so I was planning to re handle it. I'm not pissed, just kinda bummed since it's my first wa handle. The blade doesn't look damaged so if it's just the handle that's problematic it's no biggie

    fu-rin-ka-zan zdp189

    I sent him an email. If this is a handle issue only, I was planning to re handle it at some point so it's no biggie.
