Really nice Nakiri - what would you compare it to?

Nothing. It’s my first (excluding my D*o V*a ). Very weighty, and somehow no real edge OOB even though that little kawamuki was sharp as fuuuuuuuuck.

I think this is the last nail in the coffin, as the saying goes. I stumbled upon a maker in Belgium, originally was eyeing an sc125 integral 8inch. Wound up falling for the shorter crucible integral with antler and mammoth molar.
165/47 @ 150g.
Technically a gift with a yellow cedar slip.
(might get substituted for something else)

I like that, been seeing a lot of very nice Wootz being made recently.

Not quite sure what I got myself into with this one but I'm sure it'll be fun. I have an older Ironclad Toyama which is skinny and then I got a stainless clad Toyama which is a bit chunkier and much more of the WH. Anyways my buddy did some work for me and he wanted to be paid with a knife. I felt the stainless clad toy would be a perfect knife for him he'd keep for ever but than I freaked out and wanted to replace it before it was even gone.

Decided to get a wat. Saw this one in the specials. Only one without a hideous handle and the height is 62mm so I thought it would be a cool knife. Bought it before the wat bashing that took place otherwise I might have thought twice. Slight impulse buy so I didn't gather all the specs before purchasing. Just arrived today less than a week after ordering which is amazing in these times.

it is a 354g monster.

Is that your 2nd Jiro? If so would do you think it from the last one?

Oh no! It's my one and only, bought in February.

From Razor Sharp in Singapore. It's quite a handsome knife, pics don't do it justice.

 

[RockyBasel]

I also got a Toyoma Damascus from JNS today - incredible knife, feels like something else

Good to know. Ive got a Y Tanaka gyuto and definitely wouldn’t mind expanding past one knife to making a family of his knives.
