what kind of toys? Glad I am safekeeping your Carter, otherwise it probably would end up in the same lot.

 

[JohnnyChance]

the usuba is worth it just for the handle. love that mammoth and snakewood. just a bonus that it comes with a shigefusa attached to it.

You buyin a boat? If I had money, I would be empted to buy my own handle back (for the knife, of course), but only because I don't know what to do with an usuba...

It's a double bevel usuba,so it's not really an usuba.It is also very thin compared to my other shigi's i have owned,and crazy thin behind the edge.

I have no idea how you could resist such a sexy blade.

 

[Salty dog]

I didn't know you had a KD?

 

[Pensacola Tiger]

Mario, can you post a closeup of the usuba handle?

Thanks,

Rick

 

[RRLOVER]

I didn't know you had a KD?

I brought it to "dinner at salty's" but there was an obscene amount of knives there so you might missed it.

 

[RRLOVER]

Mario, can you post a closeup of the usuba handle?

Thanks,

Rick

There some at KF in my gallery,I can take more when i have some sunlight.

 

[Pensacola Tiger]

Found the closeups. Beautiful handle. No need to post more, unless you want to.

Thanks,

Rick

Could I have your opinion on the shig 240 vs the heiji 240?

 

[Mattias504]

Could I have your opinion on the shig 240 vs the heiji 240?

I'm curious as well.

 

[WildBoar]

Wish I could pick up that 240 Shigi. But with no kitchen right now, and two decent 240 gyutos already, I am having to resist. Some people are going to make nice scores during this sale!

 

[RRLOVER]

Could I have your opinion on the shig 240 vs the heiji 240?

They are so different in the grind,the shigi has a convex grind and the heiji has two honkin bevels.I don't see how i can compare such different ladies.What I can say is they both cut great and both would make great work horses.

 

[Mattias504]

And thats the best reason to own one of each. They are like hot cousins or something.

 

[RRLOVER]

I am kinda shocked,I thought the shigi 240 gyuto with the stefan handle would go first.

 

[sashae]

I dunno, Heiji does it for me...

 

[EdipisReks]

i'll take the shigefusa gyuto, if it's still available.
