Ya'll joke, but didn't Mark have Mazaki do some OEM stuff (not under the Richmond name) before Mazaki became Mazaki?
What happened to Richmond Knives?

Wouldn't know... Damn I don't get the Mazaki thing at all.
I do buy Togo's knockoff of the Kunz spoons. I go elsewhere for knives and stuff but a $6 spoon is better than a $12 spoon.

Wanna give my 210mm a ride?
You know, for months I thought you were referring to some vendor I’d never heard of whose given name was “Togo”.
Thanks but no. I've got two data points. Both were meh. And both were carbon. I can do carbon but it has to be pretty spectacular.
Mazaki or Kurosaki?

Better cool it with knives for a while. At least till after the wedding.
JCK had a sale recently . Like when he has sale on sayas.
Along lines of Misono the Kanetsugu Pro M better. Very thin grind and comfortable handle. That and Blue Moon are are good bang for the buck blades at JCK.
NONONO! No more knives for now.
I told myself i had enough knife,(At least now is)XDXD.
Now is JNAT time
You're right, Better cool it for a while,

I’m right there with you. I pretty much killed my 2020 bucket list in 2 monthes. Time to calm down on knife purchases.

I’m sorry, but how do you manage to answer that with a straight face. Teach me Master!
Easy day. My carbon gyutu include a Haburn, Wat KU, Marko, and maybe one or two others. Carbon is a pia and it's gotta earn it's keep. I could keep trying Mazaki and maybe one would resonate. Or I could quit on them and go for the knives I'm more likely to like. Life is too short .

Heres the secret man, you go and bid on the crappiest cheapest stones you can find. Show her how cheap they are. Secretly buy expensive stones, with a seperate account, make sure you have hidden a spreadsheet somewhere with the real cost incase you expire (maybe with your will and lawyer)NONONO! No more knives for now.

Is it? Might have to get a some more photos of it before I purchase it.
The photo is taken from a slight left angle making right side appear straighter than it probably is.

Get clearer pics. Looks more right biased in that one

This is what I'm seeing... a flatter right side plus an edge apex that's closer to the right than left (using right and left here in reference to the pic and not the actual side of the knife). Barmoley's right, too, that perspective probably exaggerates this a tad--still looks riiiiighty though.

I’m sorry, with that sort of competition I can understand that Mazaki has a hard time making a place in the rotation.
My comment was actually far more childish than that, and written in what I understand was not entirely correct English (in regards to @CiderBear s comment about “test driving a 210”).
My apologies, no offence intended to any party.
No taken. No worries.
It is a bit odd that every Yoshikane I've ever picked up, I liked and it fit me like it was made for me. And I can't find anything to like about Mazaki.

NO ChoP!

That's so thin I don't think you would notice any bias.
Damn, is Mazaki making Yoshikane too, that guy is just everywhere.
I kid, I kid
On a slightly more serious note, I tried 2 different generations of Mazaki and even though I thought one of the later ones from cleacut was a good knife it just didn't speak to me somehow. All the dimensions were right and the balance and everything and yet something didn't fit, not sure what really. Very odd when this happens.

He actually used to work at Yoshikane, according to the most reliable source ever https://www.reddit.com/r/chefknives/comments/eso7tq/comment/ffd46fv
