is Shinichi still producing watanabe kurouchi line?

[J.C]

just curious, i can't find it anymore from the pro-list but it seems like some people still be able to get it.
mtckitchen recently had the 270 KU as well.
has anyone tried to contact shinichi-san about this too?

It was at the bottom of the Pro kitchen knife list under;

Why Watanabe doesn’t have that website redesigned is beyond me.

I don't know but it could be because he's too busy running a small operation? I have had great delivery service from him on my three orders and all of my questions have been answered via email promptly. Yes I agree that he might be doing himself a favor by upgrading the web site but I don't have a clue how much that would cost him in his local.

I got this reply from Shinichi, just to share with you guys. Im not sure if he’s still taking order for the kurouchi or he just forge it occasionally.
