Show your newest knife buy

[ashy2classy]

which ikeda?

Honyaki. Wanted a blue 1 sumi but they only had 240s and a 300.

Nice, i was hoping for 270 b1 Sumi as well.

 

[alterwisser]

Don't feel any shame, you got one! Those Dalmans sell out in seconds, I assume it's for a reason congrats

it’s funny, when I got my 240 Warikomi I wasn’t even fast, didn’t even see notifications or anything... I happened to randomly check the store as I was looking for an image and price of a previously sold knife and there it was still available .... I thought it was a glitch lol. Was sure that it wouldn’t work and didn’t even rush putting in my details.

But it worked.... Dalman No 9 for me. Well, 8 1/2 I guess lol

New Dalman arrived, 250mm KU-Gyuto, AEB-L:

A beautiful thing, that is.
How do you like the ku finish vs the full polish one? (anecdotally, my ku finish one feels thicker than earlier full polish one)
Also, how many Dalmans is too many?

Does not compute.

Here’s the Ikeda clad white #2. Such a sick ass workhorse. And new Hasegawa PE board which seems pretty legit too.

Looks a lot thinner behind the edge than the choil shots on BC's website . Nice

Haven’t measured but 48-49mm seems about right.

I received mine today and left it at work...crazy day. Sorry no pics. Love the board.

 

[CiderBear]

I hate you.

It does look a little lefty

 

[TSF415]

I hate you.

Knife’s too short and boards too small for you. Lol

 

[TSF415]

Not this one! Might look a bit that way but run your fingers along the knife and the grind is clear as day.

 

[labor of love]

I love my big fat 260 gram shigehiro. I’ve been telling myself I’d like to have an Ikeda counterpart but light and thin.
Really good looking Ikeda. Nice score.

 

[panda]

labor and i both want an ikeda and hasegawa and here comes TSF completely beating us to it...

Yep. Give it up man.

 

[TSF415]

It’s really not though. Handles just off centered. But to be honest it’s a quite large handle . And @CiderBear ’s will probably be a lefty. She might have found your Ikeda for you.

Well who am I sending this “PM sent” to?

Don't you dare put that evil on me.

Do you know how much yours weights?

Sorry I take it back.

no clue. Batteries died in my scale at home. Overall it’s actually pretty weighty. Thick spine but feels like a smaller knife. A lot less clunky than my mazaki. I feel this defines more of a workhorse for me than the bigger heavyweights I have because it’s nimble enough that I won’t get tired of using it. Or so I think.

 

[panda]

yup, workhorse for me are entirely mid-weight. the heavy ones feel great while cutting, but it causes arm fatigue after a while.

I mean, I can weigh it for you if you want.
