Ugh… so sexy… I been thinking about getting a Wat / Toyama gyuto for awhile now… how does the handle and f&f feel? I have his 180mm stainless nakiri and it’s very blade forward in my opinion… wished it was a little more “balanced” and the f&f is adequate …"Stainless" clad Wat 270 showing a lil sumsum again, but I like it!

I like an aggressive forward balance so it's great for me. This 270 is balanced at the middle kanji character, the Toyama ho-wood D handle is quite nice but you could certainly throw a dense one on there to move balance back. F&F is meh for the price, choil needs a bit of rounding, some stray scratch marks on the migaki finish. Cuts so well I don't give a damn about any of it.Ugh… so sexy… I been thinking about getting a Wat / Toyama gyuto for awhile now… how does the handle and f&f feel?

That’s a really nice piece of GidgeeI had my Sakai Kikumori Gokujyo 270mm gyuto re-handled by @Tekkz with ringed gidgee from @jedy617 and a brass cap. I am really happy with how it turned out, and the result exceeded my expectations and hopes.

I use three of these. Your drawer should be at least 3.5" deep.Nice collection… but also where did you find the knife drawer holder? Can you put it in an office desk ?
Panning for NewhamsI use three of these. Your drawer should be at least 3.5" deep.
I have around 3" and it's tight. Fortunately I don't care for tall knives.
