I love my full size s grind western ironwood in 52100. It’s my current Goto gyuto, taking over for the munetoshi
That doesn't appear to be Martin's website. Check here for his site:@martinhuber
FYI
I guess Shopify doesn't want me looking at your knives... I got this message at the 3rd knife I looked at, and every one after.
Waited 10 minutes and refreshed several times... Still can't even look at them

Hey sorry for the confusion. We are one of Martin's close partners and yes we offer a range of other makers on our site also. Thank you for sharing about the page error. Ill look into that.
i place the order for oboro (thinner grind) one, will post when it arrives
You come up when I search for Kamon knives too. I don't think there is anything wrong, you just have a good Web developer who gets your site on top of search results. It's counterintuitive, but perhaps add links to the makers sites in their listings, as to give them credit. Maybe go the hyperlink route to get a kickback in case someone buys a diff knife through your link. It would feel more honest that way... Not saying you are dishonest, just gives credit and gives your customers a better selection. May help you decide which knives to carry in the future based on what people end up buying. I can see how this might detract from your sales. Just my 2 cents!
Happened to me last drop. Charges got reversed that afternoon. Pricing coming up a little bit from where he was ($700/$720 today), although I don't think unreasonable. A well tuned Raquin can be a fantastic cutter.
Most likely a preauthorization charge as part of the checkout flow. Should drop off automatically.
Think I remember the last drop at $450-500, pretty significant increase
What's the over/under on that one?!
Yes indeed. Until recently Bryan was charging 1.80 euro per mm for gyuto's. So that 225 would have cost $441. Prices have increased significantly.
Both from today were with Bryan’s kasumi finish (rather than satin) which I believe has always carried a significant upcharge.
Seems Bryan has removed the price schedule. But I thought the Jnat kasumi finish was about a 70 euro option
"A Note About Sharpening Shiro-Kunimitsu Knives: Please do not add a micro-bevel, as this can lead to micro-chipping of the already fine, sharp cutting edge. "
I’d say $2300. I’d prob take the over too. Rarely see combos like this.
It's the branding TF wanted to use and thought..... nah, we can't be that disingenuous. So they toned it down. These guys are b@lls out embracing the whole package of multigenerational swordsmith turned knife maker imagery."A Note About Sharpening Shiro-Kunimitsu Knives: Please do not add a micro-bevel, as this can lead to micro-chipping of the already fine, sharp cutting edge. "
First time I've seen a claim that adding a micro-bevel makes a knife MORE prone to chipping
Damasteel, the best commercially available Damascus
I thought it I had saw that somewhere. Seems like it’ll certainly be over $2300
Yeah, I think his last knife on auction went for $1800 if I'm not mistaken. That was a 270mm honyaki integral full mirror polish. And the Jonas x Tobias integral was in the $2k ballpark
You're probably right.
No, but they've been out of stock for some time as far as I know.
