I got my JNS Toyama 180mm Nakiri a month ago. To say I'm happy with it is an understatement to "happy." I'm a whole-food, plant-based (vegan)... if I had to have but one knife (perish the thought) it would likely be the Toyama Nakiri. It just plows through produce effortlessly, and provides a great 60mm height to scoop up produce. Obviously so much of this knife journey is an evolution to find out what works for you. One thing I know is I'm not a lightweight/laser fan... I prefer the heft of a middleweight+ and Toyama really hits that sweet-spot for me.So, this beautiful knife has arrived, thanks to JNS. It's the Toyama 180 Nakiri Kasumi. Maksim, thanks for sorting me with one of my dream knives before Toyama retires and the prices skyrocket.
It's pretty well finished all around and the handle and tang are sealed with some sort of wax, which I've not seen on my Watanabe blades.
Can't wait to put it through some veggies over the next few days.
