Hive mind! Do the thing!

I feel the Okubo dimensions suits you more Bill but I had to vote Yoshimitsu. That is a sexy "little" nakiri.

How big is your cutting-board, and what are you looking to cut with the knife? Pretty sure there'll be quite a difference in a 155mm and a 250mm!

Judging by your Hyde dimensions, the Okubo.

I’m just having fun out there. What I currently have is enough, but why stop there?

 

[MSicardCutlery]

...what only 250mmX90mm? Have you started going to meetings or something ?

 

[Choppin]

I have the Unshu Chuzen. Great profile and grind, thin with a healthy amount of convexity. Really geared towards veggies.

I don't see an option for "all of the above."

 

[tostadas]

I think you know the answer. Only one of the options includes rawdog handle. Did you ask Michael to make sure the okubo comes in a larger size for you?

 

[IsoJ]

Okubo custom

 

[Carl Kotte]

Snorlax

 

[BillHanna]

By the way, ALL of these will be purchased. We’re just deciding who’s on first.

I’m gonna go 250x115, with a more cleaverish tip. I “grew up” on Moritaka, so dead flat is comfy.

I have both this and Yoshimitsu Kajiya. Need little time to get used them but super fun knives. Bill I can send them to try.

Well? Well???!!!

Nice!

And the one I voted for to boot.

 

[BillHanna]

When I finally get my own, I’ll order it without the handle. So the one I put on can go all the way to the choil.

Slightly off topic, I keep looking at this type, and tempted to get one, but what are the advantages over a Nakiri Or is it basically a taller version of a Nakiri?
