I don't imagine there is much interest in seeing another picture of this knife., But I just bought a Nexus 9.5 inch chefs knife from C&M for 59 dollars.
Really a nice knife and not just for the money. Its a nice knife period. But for 59 dollars I think its the best deal in all of knifedom. Nice fit and finish, brilliant blade grind, polished edges, sweet handle and solid blade steel. Whats not to like?View attachment 155528View attachment 155529View attachment 155530View attachment 155531

Lens,
Thank you for the review. I was looking for a decent, yet sane, present for my 25 and 29 year old daughters for Christmas. I took a chance based on your post, and am quite happy with the chefs/gyuto, and pair of paring knives. I think these will be quite good starters in the kitchen and with some decent care will last a long time. The fit and finish is on par with a European department store knife. I'm not sure what the steel is, but hopefully it's a good compromise between current Euro softish knives and full-on Japanese steel. The handle shape, fit, and finish are really good and comfortable.

I basically echo what @ian posted. I got here prior to Ian but have been a much less diligent student. I don't remember the exact chronology but I think I was still within the window of opportunity to order one of your knives but was too ignorant to do so. I've been kicking myself since and watching B/S/T for an Ingoglia without success.
Nice profile!

Just got this one's big brother, looking forward to posting some pics and notes after I get a chance to put it to work!
 
Just based on the choil shot, I’d say yours is quite different than my 52100. I’m not at home now or else I would post a photo. Just wondering if he’s modified the profile,etc of his knives, or if he uses a different grind based on the steel, or just my possibly my faulty memory of mine 😀.

Shehan's monosteel 52100 is a wide bevel hamaguri grind with a shinogi.. this is very different, being a full grind. You're basically comparing apples to oranges here.

Thanks!

I think these are much closer to his stainless clad stuff.. that being said, he has been striving for more taper than before.. so probably more in line with his current stuff than older stuff (which is still fantastic).

Myojin Naohito 210. I love sg2 and had been looking at this for a while, caught it on a sale. FF is superb, and the grind seems awesome. Asuming the heat treat is good this may be my new daily driver for a while. Got a piece of curly afzelia heading my way to make the handle out of. View attachment 157397View attachment 157396

Ok the afzelia block came in. It's gorgeous. I couldn't capture it well in a picture but just think lots of curl stripes. Here's a pic. What do yall think? Is it classic looking enough for such a blade? Should I do a ferrule of some kind? No?
