[Badgertooth]

Those prices are eye-watering

I think I got my kitaeji 210 off So 6 months ago i think for roughly the same price but those kasumi prices seem a bit steep

 

[jimmy_d]

Wow that is a lot of money...

Shogun Knife Company has a few with custom handles. The Kanji look different on several of them. Here's one that's available. Still not sure of the Kanji.

 

[ynot1985]

That's one of the son's kanji

 

[lans8939]

I thought it maybe but needed a more experienced opinion. Are the knives similar in performance between sons and father?

All i can say is whoever bought that is one good looking guy

 

[Badgertooth]

There is something about making dinner with a 270 shig which feels really authoritative.

 

[Vancouverguy]

That price with a Saya is perfect. I can't believe the system let me have two.

Takeshi's software sometimes mongs out and you might get an apologetic email and a refund.

 

[Godslayer]

I'm guessing some of use will be getting emails lol.

 

[TheCaptain]

Sounds like I have to add a Shig to my list of knives to get a second job to afford...

It shouldn't have. Greedy boy!
:justkidding:

 

[tgfencer]

Been on the lookout for the right 270mm for a while, never thought it would end up being a Shig.

these seem a steal considering the 270mm wa ksaumi gyuto on Japan Tool sold for 98,000 yen so roughly 980 usd

 

[spoiledbroth]

So how many people have bought knives through yoshizawa riko?

Just curious

 

[Furminati]

Jeez how many did they have ?

 

[Badgertooth]

Who is Yoshizawa Riko?

 

[panda]

someone who figured out ya'll are obsessed and will pay honyaki prices.

 

[Vancouverguy]

I'll Keep you guys updated If I DO get two!

 

[Godslayer]

Just got the email of shame... My heart is broken maybe someday I'll get my shigefusa gyuto. :cheffry: :knife:

[Badgertooth]

That 188mm that's threatened to be in stock since last year

$520 for a Shig Gyuto 270mm+saya isn't quite at the level of honyaki pricing I don't think. Also I second Badgertooth, who is Yoshizawa Riko?

 

[panda]

someone mentioned $980

He owns a store in japan that sells very high end knives. More of a collectors store. Probably has some very nice stuff. No website that I know of. Probably exists but in moon speak.
