Had fun playing with my Sukenari Ginsanko 240 gyuto today at work... Seems like quite a nice performer. Ho wood handle is better than some I have seen and the buffalo horn has a good chamfer on it. Quite a big handle, but the neck of the knife is pretty big and it's quite a heavy blade. No wedging on potatos or carrots, just destroyed onion and bell pepper brunoise, no pull whatsoever and I think it's got some asymmetry to it... I've been getting into 70/30 or 80/20 bevels... lot easier to sharpen the backside and do Jon's deburring method without clipping the handle.

The knife came with some condensation on it... but was stored in noncorrosive paper. Kinda weird and I noticed a pit in the cladding but its way up by the spine. I'm quite happy for 220CAD shipped. Thanks kkf!

heres another shot from the seller...

Bought it from a fella on kkf actually, he'd posted a thread a while back about them so I thought I'd ask what he thought of the knife and ended up buying it. They're available on HiromotosToGo. :scared4:
 
Tried to post a pic but guess I dont have enough threads yet

Picked up my cck 1303, ran it over my 3000stone and cuts very well. Stained the handle and lacquered it so looks nicer!

Still waiting on my Aritsugu gyuto for 2 weeks now!
 
Don't post as an attachment. Post it as an image. Upload it to an image sharing website and link it via the image tool in the post window toolbar.
 
I tried an image sharing device but that didn't work. Why can't you just add attachments????
 


you linked the library not the direct image, if you click on the image and go to the img link text then it will work.
 
See you found it somehow.....

Anyways just a plain ol cck with a cheap dye job!

Still waiting on the Aritsigu . Driving me crazy cause now I wont have it to show off with the 25 people at my BBQ tomorrow!!
 
Just bought a Tanaka Gin 3 Nashiji 150mm petty. Falling in love with ginsanko again, it's pretty much like semi stainless without the threat of staining or corrosion due to poor care.
 
Mr Nagao bolsterless honyaki

Quite a nice blade! Has a good acoustic quality.

Just re-handled my Sakai Takayuki petty with Anton's handle.

Dave did an incredible job refurbing this 50's F.Dick for me.
The blade was repaired and refinished, finger guard removed, bolster replaced and a new Kingwood handle. It is a real beauty.

Wow Huw, it looks great. It screams "finesse", if that makes any sense...
..... never thought I'd say this, but I really want to touch that Dick!
 
Looks nice, a lot of heritage to that knife. I remember when Dave was doing the WIP thread for that one. Also lookin' forward to seeing the custom Miz :cool2:

I don't even want to get into the latter part of Knerd's comment
 
Just got this Shigefusa Nakiri. Haven't put it to use yet but I love the hand made look of it.

What image hosting site/s do people like? Tinypic is free but almost unusable for me because of the barrage of data intensive Ad attacks.
 
Imgur works well but I don't know if it works for embedding here.
 
Dropbox works for me. I like easy. Imgur images don't view as well. Photobucket also does not view well. For me.

Dave does have a way with Dicks.:whistling:
 
Yeah less pricy is the operative word with Shigs. This was the only one i could touch in my range. Have to wait on the Kasumi 240 Wa I guess. I didn't get it from Japan Woodworker. I got the last one from a seller in Japan. Most places seem to be out of stock of this one.
 
First shig 275mm heel to tip sujihiki.
