Hello KKF members,
I would like to see what I can catch with those 2 knives. I don't necessarily want to trade them (no sale, sorry), and I am not in a hurry.
1. Yanick honyaki sujihiki 305x41 mm in 135Cr3, around 220 g
This one came from the modern cooking auction. Fantastic knife, and a real unicorn, but I just don't use it a lot - I don't cut a lot of proteins.
I used it 3 times, never sharpened, pristine condition, just a discreet patina on it.
2. Kamon "small" Cleaver, 200 x 83 mm, 1.2519, blacked out, 327 g, balance point on the maker's mark.
I get this one from a trade from the original owner who gets it on the modern cooking website. Link : Kamon Knives | Cleaver 200mm X 80mm "Wave" texture | Modern Cooking
Another crazy knife with the typical crazy distal taper from Ben's knives. Love this one. It has been used several times and stropped on a Aizu, never fully sharpened. Very thin BTE. Still very sharp.
I am looking primarily for a Kamon gigantoku / Milan recent work gyuto 240mm+ / maybe the9 / something interesting (mostly western makers) / nude pictures.
Thanks a a lot guys !
