Nice deal but short heel...

That’s because of the vendors markup, he can’t undercut the guys buying from him to sell for him, right?

I messaged kisuke for an enn and he told me he would make one for 2 grand lol so guess not just vendors

This one looks very similar to metal flow. Maybe the wrought is too clean?
There's a lot of variation in MF for sure, but if you look at this one (Tetsujin Metal Flow Blue #2 Gyuto 240mm - Blade Only) it looks very very similar, as opposed to the other wrought Bernal had, which looks more distinctive.

Oh based on your messaging I thought it sounded like she would sell for much less direct. Otherwise not sure where you got the 1k from.

He’s the guy that is popular for making sushi in YouTube shorts (and TikTok?)

Seems like he owns a few Japanese knives. Particularly those forged by Nakagawa

Maybe because Toyama is getting so old, Watanabe is trying to actually make his own knives?

Looks like they need to dial back the setting on the pull thru by a couple notches

It's the traditional Japanese knife known as snappedinhalfiki.

I've been wanting one of those for a while tbh but the Watanabe ones are too expensive for me. I just take a stainless deba instead and cut the gills

Not about the size...it's about how you use it

 

[BillHanna]

Just the tip

 

[Jovidah]

It's not about size, it's about meters per second.
