Just pmd him this. Figured id give him a headstart
Thank you, if it was any other style, that handle is not for me.
I would consider anything 8" and up, other than the octagonal handle. When I'm prepping out soups in the winter I do not find that handle comfortable.
What grip type are you using. I didn't see this particular knife, but the bloodroot I used to have had one of the most comfortable octagonal handles in pinch grip I've tried. If you are using hammer/racket grip then I can see how octagonal handles might not be comfortable.
I am using more of a pinch grip and the octagonal handle isn't as comfortable for me as a classic style handle on a gyuto.
Marc, you are a stud. Love this community.
outstanding. hope it works out.

Mark its my 40th. I want a funayaki
That knife sold but thank you again for sending my way, this community is awesome!
Hard to believe ... the big 40 was over 30 years ago for me. Had some health problems but I can honestly say the last 30 has been better than the first 40. Kids grew up and became real people, mortgages got paid off, income went up, stopped fighting the world and relaxed and enjoyed life more. Congrats brother ... your best years are in front of you. Enjoy!
