She's not into knives like I am, but she appreciates good tools in the kitchen, and if we were ever to split up, she would need a general-purpose knife. She's also very interested in cooking and baking, so a knife would fit her interests.

Ah, sorry for the bad English. We're not married, I just erroneously used spouse synonymously with partner.

Don't do what?

I originally bought a Kaeru W2 180mm gyuto during the summer sale with my girlfriend in mind, but then I was tasked with (and forgot) finding a birthday gift for her sister. Luckily I know how much the sister envies our knife rack :) I have good experiences with both Maxim and Cleancut, and I...

So it's actually a rebranded TF?

Thanks for the suggestion, but if you read the original post this is definitely not what she needs.

An interesting choice. Definitely a knife I will consider.

But which one?

My spouse's birthday is coming up, and I was considering if I should get her a nice knife to expand her collection. Right now she has a Mazaki 180 mm petty (a gift from me) along with some proper paring knives and a 150mm "damascus" petty, which is almost always lying on the kitchen counter...

A Toyama 240 mm usuba. Next considerations: Do I really need an usuba? How many daikons can I actually eat on a weekly basis? Can you cut a bread roll katsuramuki style? Why is my girlfriend leaving me?

I have the Mazaki 180 petty, and it's a bit too low for my chubby fingers to be used for chopping on the board. The Munetoshi 165 petty, on the other hand, feels like an actual mini-gyuto that I can work with on a cutting board, and I can highly recommend getting one.

Fedt. Tak for informationen.

There's actually already a Danish shop working together with Korin to bring their products into Denmark.

Jep. Jeg er stadig temmelig ringe til det, men det kommer lige så stille.

It's 1:40 according to Google Maps ;)

Thanks, guys :)

Long time home cook here. About half a year ago I landed a well-paying job as a software developer. At about the same time I discovered JNS, so now I am a happy man with an unhappy bank account. I live about a 1½ hour drive from the actual shop, but I have yet to set up an appointment with...
