I gotta say that is pretty clever. You said a 270 won't fit in there?
the bag fits my 270mm gyuto but i dont have a wooden saya for it but theres still space so im quite positive it would fit. Im currently in sandiego for the next couple days as i got offered some work that i currently cant refuse as money is very tight with all kitchens being closed at the moment. Once i come back home i can confirm if a suji with a saya and what the exact dimensions are for everyone but im pretty sure one would fitI’m wondering about the drum case too. How big of a knife can you fit? Good idea for sure. Ryan
I saw that when I was looking and spent a long time trying to convince myself I don't need a 270mm at work so I could get it lolWhen I was taking buses between line cook jobs I used a 8 slot global roll and then a Jaw leather roll. They were both just ok. I recently got a Boldric backpack and have been really happy with it. Granted I use the computer more than the knives at work these days but I think it would be great for a bus commute. There is nothing that screams that guy is a cook about it. It would have to be your neck tattoos and Newports to sell the vibe.

850 for a knife roll?? it better be made out of gucci leather..
You must know how often I get that same question about any knife from <Insert custom maker> vs wusthof et al.850 for a knife roll?? it better be made out of gucci leather..
I believe that is a genuine option to have a Cordovan roll.Come on! Cordovan!
i use felt lined dexter knife guards, not a fan of sayas. having to take them in and out vertically annoys me where as the guards you slide in horizontally.Before I left the kitchen and went into knife work, I used to bring my knives in my backpack.. I had my gf knit a few multi-pocketed sleeves. I would bring 10-14 knives like this.. ofc this means that you must have sayas for your knives.. but what pros don't have sayas??

I have one of these and it's worked well for the couple dozen times I have loaded it up to go help out somewhere. A 300 yanagi in a saya fits. It a pretty non-nonsense roll, and is has a few zippered pockets, etc. Granted I rarely put move than 6 or so knives in it, plus a handful of utensils, etc., so I can't say I really give the roll a workout with respect to long-term wear resistance, etc. It isn't the most counter-friendly thing though, due to the ability to hole long knives.it looks like messermeister makes a clone at 10 dollars cheaper than ultimate edge. wonder how it compares.
Ah, that's great! So not even a Steve Goodson roll all optioned up would violate the rule (his rolls rock!)New rule: knife bags should cost no more than 10% of the contents that they protect.
If this was a serious question, then have you looked at Witloft knife rolls?
They have a 5 and 9 knife option.
If it’s not about the price as you say, LinnyKenny would custom make you a knife roll to fit whatever your kit requires.
Both solutions to me are really good and I have no problem with the pricing. Just a question of how long to save for one.
it’s a bit like taking a honyaki to an onion; a plastic handle victorinox will also make uniform dice.
my UE is literally FULL to max capacity with tools or knives in every orifice. it weighs like 30 pounds lolI have one of these and it's worked well for the couple dozen times I have loaded it up to go help out somewhere.

And of course the huge caveat is that I am not a Pro.

I gotta agree on the sayas they look nice but can really slow the work flow and take up a lot of space not a huge fan of sayasi use felt lined dexter knife guards, not a fan of sayas. having to take them in and out vertically annoys me where as the guards you slide in horizontally.
link?Kydex edge guards are a good middle to me. They're lined with cork and a bit sturdier.
