Well, this is a 2023 so hopefully it's thinner. We shall see soon. Thanks for your information

Seems more like the beefy migaki I got from K&S in Dec 2022. Similar to their pics, mine didn't have nearly the distal taper and was thicker BTE than the 2023 KU.

And people criticise Kato's calligraphic skills.

Lasted maybe 30 seconds. Hesitated for a second on 225 vs 235 and missed it

Don't feel too bad, I didn't hesitate, had my CC # on copy, and still missed it. It felt close though

What were the prices like?

The 225 worked out to $531. Not sure on the others, wasn't really browsing...

Dang that's really good, but the 225 was the thin one right?

 

[Homechef]

Yeah, thin regular grind was his description. Classic is his thinnest grind…so this was like a medium rare probably trending down toward rare when you take the height into account.

Where do I get that handle. I want for my kagekiyo dammy.

Also is there such thing as a florescent wa handle? like glow in the dark?

It's yo, but glowy

How long until they have blinking LEDs whenever they hit the board?

Pie must be getting desperate and throwing out all the gimmicks. Next they'll incorporate a sound synth. Says "ouch" every time it hits the board or "nice cut". Seems like the sort of thing for sale on Alibaba

A guy once presented me with the idea of using small tritium tubes (which glow in the dark (usually used on watch dials (look into it if you don't know what I'm talking about))), and insert them in the tiny screw holes (), of a handle made out of a translucent material. I thought something like PC30GF/ghost jade g10.

I found the idea was interesting actually, but seems one needs special permission over here in Austria/EU to use the tritium. Some boring excuse about radiation and hazards .
We'll see. Maybe forging a blade from depleted uranium is the easier route.

I can't speak for others, but I would give a knife like that a glowing review.

Yeah man, I light up just thinking about it!

I can't wait until someone makes a cleaver that screams 'BOOM!!! HEADSHOT!' everytime you decapacitate a chicken with it.

It might be possible to do it with photophorescent materials? Those basically store light and emit it slowly. So you'd have to store them in the light, can't put it in a drawer for it to work.
I'm sure you could also rig together some kind of battery slot and some LEDs somewhere in your takedown handles.

The best thing about uranium knives is that you can legit market it as 'self-sharpening'!

I think the dream is actually a suji lightsaber... where you can push a button and the blade lights up with sound.
