@Benuser Hi Ben, I used shudder quotes to already question my own assessment of needing an upgrade.
In fact, I think the Misono will be an excellent knife, based on your rec. So, why don't i just buy it? For starters as I'm relatively new to this scene, I do have a lot of curiosity for a lot of the other knives I had mentioned - more so than with the Misono.
Secondly, I believe you mentioned earlier how the relatively narrow blade prevents the Misono from being a good all-purpose knife? That might leave me wanting for something with a different geometry - hence the 'upgrade'. So that is why at this stage I want to keep an open mind and see if there is a single knife that is both a good slicer and an all purpose knife.
By the way, I've bought some Belgian brocken from amazon Germany. Will be here one of these days. Thanks again for the tip! Hope it performs as well as you said.
When you talk about the Blazen being the best what is it you specifically refer to? Geometry, durability, edge retention, ease of use?
