Good looking cleaver/nakiri for the price. Grind looks slightly lefty bias but may just be the photo

I have... questions about this one. Has Modern Cooking been sitting on this one since like September of 2023? Milan posted about it:

Also, in that post Milan measured it at 225mm... has it magically lost a cm of length? Or is that measurement possibly wrong either on MC's or Milan's end?

Just had a quick chat with Milan, who confirms that he had to repair the tip after some sort of shipment issue. Peter of MC will update the description soon.Look at these markings on the left side close to the tip. Top is original and bottom is current pic from Modern Cooking. It looks like they moved closer to the tip. Just speculation on my part, but it seems likely it got damaged in shipment and had to be sent back for repair.

I e been eyeing this onethis looks exactly like the one that I am selling. Mine would be cheaper after shipping!
I didn't come to bash Benchmade, but I am always ready to jump on. They've fallen for their own hype and have lost connection with reality. Their QC is garbage.
Ok, Now the reason I came, check this bad boy out: https://knife-life.jp/catalog/kurotori-kaiju-hunter-kiritsuke-cleaver/ I am flicking the credit card while looking at it.

I had to doublecheck the conversion. Crazy.That looks awesome, but at $2300 I'll stick with my regular Toyama.
Picked it up on my lunch break. I still need to make a handle for it.
Not up on the website yet…tell Zach and Tony to get cracking!Picked it up on my lunch break. I still need to make a handle for it.
I think I got the last one I emailed yesterday, called today, went there at lunch. He will save some for the showroom that he won't post on the website. I guess so people are incentivized to come on in? But now they've gotten too busy and they're having to dial back the hours some to be able to get orders met. Not a bad problem to have. Zach showed me the one he got, it was the beefiest of the bunch and you could feel it in hand. I am extremely pumped. I am going to start picking out the woods for my handle as soon as I get home.Not up on the website yet…tell Zach and Tony to get cracking!
