Hi,
I am a novice cook looking to expand my Japanese knife collection. Looking foreword to engage in conversations about favourite knife as well as ask for some advice about my next purchase.

Cheers

Welcome.

The best advice I can give is to consider sharpening first. Whether you want to take it on yourself or plan for a professional who specializes in Japanese blades, you need a solution. All knives need to be sharpened.

If you don't already do it, don't be intimidated, you can do it and the folks here will help. For the cost of a decent knife you can get a pretty good setup.
