What knife or knives would you consider underrated?Apparently people on here don’t know the definition of underrated. Takamura Chromax? Yoshikane SKD? Seriously? That’s like if I called nirvana underrated on a rock forum.

MUTSUMI’s knife is also underrated, If the knife has the kanji of the father, it’d be double the cost.
If the river jump has been passed on, it’d certainly boost MUTSUMI’s reputation & help to sell his knife at higher price.
great comment -- wushof gourmet _is_ a very good cheap knife. thinning the blade, did you have any trouble with the plastic of the handle coming so far forward into a mock half-bolster kindof thing?
Shun classic, very thin behind the edge, slightly convex, not a flat grind, good rendition of vg10 that's easy to sharpen and not chippy
Sukenari isn't underrated though. The handle is cheap and roughly finished, it has no distal taper whatsoever, and the grind is slightly too thick ootb. It's a good value but needs some work to really shine. Plus I can't remember reading any bad reviews of Sukenari.I was sure you were going to go with your Sukenari Ginsan on this one.

Further to this, I have since bought the gyuto. It's a thin knife Not quite laser thin but almost.I only have the suji version of his AS, which is my daily driver suji. It's a steal for what you get. I don't know how the gyuto performs but the guy can make a knife, so I would assume it's ok.
