It's just different. It's often more like artistic expression on a knife as the canvas than a tool focused on use. It's cool and often a signal of high skill if done well. The fact that the collectors of it is a distinct set from the collectors of other types of kitchen knives makes sense to me...

Not possible.

It weighs 215g but can be sharpened down to 204 if the buyer prefers.

10,000 hours! I'm glad it's staying with you and your son after being touched up by Devin. I'm sure he'll enjoy seeing a knife of his so well loved.

Good for firewood...

You're not wrong... But... Tiny, super tight on immigration and very very very homogenous societies. One of which has extreme oil wealth especially in a per capita sense the other of which imports wealth through bank secrecy and tax haven maneuvers. Neither of which are reproducible on a large...

Now all you need to do is save up your $$ to buy a proper cutting board.

I'm not American. But America is more than its President, Congress etc. It's a huge diverse place where people of very differing views coexist very peacefully for the most part. It's a place of opportunity (people argue over immigration and borders, but there's a reason people want to get there...

America is the greatest country on earth. But also the greatest country to make fun of on earth (other than the French and Brit*sh).

The drama here is nothing!

They'll also clearly debate about what color the line should be, whether it should be straight, curved (convexity rules) or wiggly. Where the shinogi line should be set, what the ideal HRC for the line is, how long it should be and whether it's ok to flip the line, if the drawer of the line has...

Imagine cutting pineapple with a Kato bought for $20,000 after his 25th year in retirement aged 103 and then putting it on a pizza. In all sincerity, Luke I hope you're ok. Look after yourself, that's the most important thing.

Fair point. I think most people are reasonable and there's a variety of views held among them and they find it hard to believe that other people who they know to be reasonable would see something so differently. So it's kinda like 'well maybe if I say it one more time in a different way, they'll...

I've chimed in occasionally when I see stuff, but as I said I'm not super active. The joke about the board was to lighten the mood, Luke seems like a good dude who I think deserves a bit of extra leeway, but the point I was making was kinda independent of him, tho I think other factors would...

And my WTS thread listing them for a huge profit will be glorious!!!

I haven't been on this forum for a long time like some of y'all. Also I'm not a very frequent contributor. I saw the drama and I think that even if he had bought the knife for 1k it wouldn't be bad form. I understood your 'maker favor' angle. However he was sitting on an ultra rare knife that...

Very thin (very - basically wiped off with a paper towel) layer of grapeseed. Heat it until basically it stops smoking. Wait. Rinse and repeat a few times after its cooled. Then cook a bunch of fatty things with it before you start trying to fry an egg on it.

Shhh big U have agents everywhere.

Sydney is the same today and it's meant to be nearly summer. I feel cheated.

Good point. I'll nope out now.
