A friend saw a video I made of sharpening and using my Yu Kurosaki Gyuto and she lost her mind. She was about to buy a set of garbage knives and she asked me for some advice. She needs a Gyuto and a petty (chef knife and paring knife were her words). She wanted to limit the spend to $100 per knife, but may go a touch higher. I am searching the online stores for something interesting for her.
She had not even thought of sharpening, and she has one of the garbage sharpeners with the wheels. I know she is not going to dive in to manual whetstone sharpening, so I am recommending the edge pro system for her. I don't need much advice on this part, but I am telling you now so you know how she will be sharpening whatever you recommend.
So, I need a great recommendation for a huge benefit to cost ratio on a 210mm Gyuto and a 100mm or 120mm petty. I would be happy to recommend up to $130-$150 on the Gyuto if necessary and $90 - $120 on the petty.
Thank you!
