Zahocho Blue 1 Nakagawa x Kawakita

[pgugger]

Anyone have one of these? How are they?

From the pics, reminds me a bit of Migoto White 1 by the same makers but haven’t heard much about them.

It’s a legendary knife!

I do think I want one of these. Was debating posting a WTB instead of this thread. Hoping someone would give me a reason not to want one here. But alas.

I should say that mine is from the first batch. It’s Blue 1 and extra height at 58 mm. Second batch were regular height 50 mm and Blue 2 I believe. Still amazing knife. Go for it! Kawakita is a legendery sharpener!

The video at Zahocho‘s IG was made with my knife. Fred recorded the video and shipped it out. It was the last one.
