Nice, was that from japan-tool?

yeah, I was quite surprise when I saw it.

 

[MadDurrr]

The Damascus claddings on those Takamuras are very striking. Jealous...:wink:

Not a kitchen knife but some of you may recognize this brand. Its everything everyone says it is. OOB edge was not up to KKF level, I fixed that though. First and last EDC.

^^ Carbon Fiber Sebenza 25. Great Choice. I hear those are noticeably lighter than the all Ti version, which will be easier on the pockets. From the full size CRK line, my personal favorite is the Umnumzaan.

 

[Mucho Bocho]

Kitchen Commander, Thanks, it comes in at 4.1 OZ or 115 grams. For me it establishes a new level of F/F and attention to detail.

 

[Castalia]

I am big fan too. I have the small carbon fiber 21 insingo weighing in at 2.3 oz instead of 3.0 oz for the regular titanium small. :doublethumbsup:

Got these two a couple of weeks ago during my kitchen renovation: Delicate Shig kitaeji usuba 210mm and beastly Sugimoto OMS #7.

 

[SolidSnake03]

How's the Sugi #7? That spine looks quite thick so is it not really as much of a "slicing cleaver"? Curious because I think the #6 is the go-to model for Sugi while the #7 is a heavier/thicker version...

 

[krx927]

My two latest acquisitions.

Top is a Masashi Kobo damascus 240, and bottom is the Hiromoto Honesuki, both SLD.

Nice looking knife that Masashi Kobo.

I recently bought 150mm patty and I just love it. Can you please tell me if the knife is also very thin, like my petty? Would it be possible for you to measure spine width and make some coil pics?

Small Sebenza 21



This little fella (Spyderco worker) after some considerations, but it was a hard choice (a very charismatic knife):

It is quite beastly compared with my previous Sugimoto #6, 590g vs 430. It is also quite a fair bit thicker through out. However, once I thin out the tip part just a bit while keeping the heel part as robust as it is, it should be a very good allrounder.

 

[SolidSnake03]

Sounds great! Thanks for that feedback

I'll have a go. Don't have any calipers or anything.

It's a thin knife and is one of the best cutters I have, in the league of my Tanaka and Takamura R2 knives.
I like it a lot. It actually measures 250, which I also like.

Masahi Kobo petty owner. Love this thing. I hope the gyuto is a dream to work. It looks fantastic.

Cheers,

Not my new buy, but got these three Syousin Chiku AS staliness claded gyuto, suji, and petty for a test drive from James.

 

[420layersofdank]

Choil shot on suji please???

 

[schanop]

Choil shot on suji please???

Yes, of course. Here it is, gyuto, suji, petty, and all of those in comparison.

Ok, hopefully these aren't too rubbish.



For comparison, from top to bottom:
Tadatsuna 240 white 2
Tanaka 240 blue 2
Takamura Hana 210 R2
Masashi Kobo 240
Tanaka 270 R2

Masashi Kobo choil


Tanaka R2 choil


Tanaka blue 2 choil


Very rough measurements for the Masashi Kobo are 3mm at the handle, about 1.5mm half way down and 1mm an inch from the tip.
very rough

I'll backtrack slightly on my previous comment, the Masashi Kobo is not quite in the league of my Tanaka R2 and Takamura R2. It's not far off, but not quite there. Just been chopping up some potatoes.
