I see this brand thrown around often as the holy grail. and now i wonder are these better than other knives? I have common hinouras (AS/WH2), kuroskais AS/R2), akifusas (SRS15), yoashikanes (SKD11), masamotos (Blue2) and macs (AUS8) and so on.
And now I wonder if I'm actually a bad person for not having shigefusas instead.
So whats special about shigefusas?
I mean to be honest I dont see much performance differences in thickness/grinds and profiles of all my santokus for example. I'ts more how i grind the knives that will determine that imo. thin out. and such.
I completely understand that zero edges cut better and such but i cant actually use that myself. I put a zero on my hinoura Wh2 240mm with a 12k superstone, felt sharp as hell. scary sharp.
taped the edge up to show a guy at work. Turned out the tape left residue i had to remove with brake clean at work so, i rubbed it off with brake clean and a clean white rag. took me maybe 2 minutes. and when this was done the knife would not even cut paper. seriously. and before that if would slide through paper like butter hell its was even easier than that.
So i'm not much for zeros. and even before that i wasnt either.
and the profile on all edges can be manipulated quite easily on the stones right. and the thickness can too.
so whats so special about shigefusas?? I cant even buy one, every place that stock them are out of stock.
