So this is Heiji’s picture, before finishing the knife?
Yep.

Well that’s very Jeffrey Dalmer of you.
Honey I married an axe murderer
Be honest. Pan down and show us the chicken heads underneath. How high is that pile?
But underneath is just my work bench.
That in your living room?
Sounds like a win/winGuest bedroom. I have to clean it all up if someone stays. It's easy to convince relatives visiting with children to stay at the hotel.
So what do you miss most when you put down the gyuto? The ability to cut onions or all the "just the tip" jokes you don't get to make?
I want to see more nakiri/cleaver cutting videos from y'all !!
What is this closet that you speak of?Nakiris cut onions just fine, fwiw. Little more drag if you’re doing a tip swipe (which you can still do), but otherwise they’re onion destroyers.
Face it. You made this thread because subconsciously, you want a nakiri. Closeted, conflicted gay people are sometimes the worst homophobes, and I think this is similar. My wife’s a therapist if you need someone to talk you through your transition to square knives.

One more.
Unknown (to me) brand Chinese cleaver
I've been fixing it up awhile. For many years this was the world's sharpest accordion cutter. Usually the issue with cheap cleavers is the steel isn't very hard or the grind isn't very good. This cleaver suffers from neither of those problems but it had a bad case of what the razor guys call a frown. I gradually wore it into submission. The profile is tolerable now if still a little flat. This is a test run after thinning. It's basically a 12k zero bevel edge on a laser ground cleaver. It's going to be a Christmas present so I'll be sure to put a hefty micro bevel on it before I send it out into the wild.

Your clever says it’s made in China by “FoShan” (佛山, a southern city ) “San Ge” (三革)The last character is obscured so I can only guess this means Third ‘Ge’. So the maker was third brother Ge in FoShan city. The 3 means that it is a no 3 mulberry (thin) clever.
sadly a cursory internet search reveals nothing, I’d guess the maker is no longer operational or had much of a domestic reputation. Perhaps a small factory focused on the south east Asia export market in the 90’s?
How do you purchase things from razor sharp? There doesn’t seem to be checkout options.
