Right? Even at 300 I feel like I overpaid, but it fits the criteria I was after. Western handle, perfect grind, nice taper. a little shorter at the heel than I’m after and the profile is meh but it will be as good of a beater there is.600 for a beater? Lol
Epicurean edge is in Seattle
Just to nitpick, it’s in Kirkland, not really Seattle. Everyone living there would remind you of that.
Kirkland is a yuppie upperclass White neighborhood that’s a blip on a map. So yeah would have had to reference Seattle anyway.Just to nitpick, it’s in Kirkland, not really Seattle. Everyone living there would remind you of that.
Simple...Because I live on Lake Union in Seattle and Kirkland is not Seattle... as Oakland is not San Francisco, San Bernardino is not Los Angles. There was a question of location. Do you think Kirkland is Seattle?As would we over here on the other side of the lake. It's a pedantic geographic argument and really one where prior to a day ago one which would lead you to have to reference Seattle anyway.
whatever who cares. I only referenced seattle because no one further than Tacoma even knows where Kirkland is. More importantly we got a good seattle crew here in this thread.

I just picked up the last bu-rei-zen from epic edge. Guy at the shop said hocho-knife is the exclusive retailer for Ryusen now, a contract has been signed. And price is jacked up and locked at $600 range.
@JBroida can you confirm? I know you have Ryusen at your shop
Not that I am aware of... we have a contract with them and deal directly. I was not aware of hocho-knife having exclusive rights as that would contradict our contract.
Hoboken is part of njKinda like saying Hoboken is not New York, Pentagon is not on Washington DC and Hollywood is not in LA
I hope you don't have an issue with this contract as I'm looking forward to buying one of your Ryusen Pettys that you just ordered ;-)
Interesting. The dude at the shop was saying they’re running out of stock and Ryusen won’t send them anymore product. Although it was just one of the shop dudes and not Dan O’Malley, perhaps I will give him a call to straighten out the info.
Sounds like speculation. Some guy at Epic Edge also told me that no Shigefusa knives are being made any more so I'd take what they say with a dose of salt.
Pentagon address is Washington, DC, and has a DC zip code. But yeah, it is in Arlington when it comes to needing responses from Fire/ Rescue. etc.Kinda like saying Hoboken is not New York, Pentagon is not on Washington DC and Hollywood is not in LA
I wouldn't crap on ee for this. Sounds like ryusen is just attempting to reduce it's no. of retailers, create exclusivity, and improve its ability to enforce msrp. Kind of a d*ck move cutting out reputable retailers but that's their prerogative?
Coincidentally, price increase.
