Finally got time to post the review of Takeda's cleaver. Weird, but fantastic knife for veggies. Click on the title to see the review.

Very nice, small and cheap knife. Too bad he's not making any more of those. Check out the pix and reviews, click on the title to get there.

Posted initial review of Kumagoro Hammer Finish Gyuto. Excellent knife, with excellent custom handle from Stefan Keller. Check it out.

Aritsugu A-type WA-Gyutoand AoKo Fugubiki arrived today. Gyuto is single beveled, my first one of that type, pretty thin at that. And that fugubiki is just 270mm long hell razor :) Light, thin. Can't wait to sharpen it.

Weird looking, but very nice blade. Definitely one of the sharpest blades I've ever seen. Now, if I find a chicken somewhere to cut it with my brand, spanking new honesuki it'll be drool.

Wow! For a custom knife this one was real quick. It's nicely polished, thinner than standard Watanaben nakiris. Sharpened it already and now it's sharp as hell. Didn't need much sharpening though.

Well, after using Takeda Deba to cut the chicken, decided that Honesuki was a must, even if I eat chicken once a year or less...

So far only a few basic terms, but I'll expand it. Really difficult to get used to all those Japanese words w/o help.

Watanabe Kuro-Uhci nakiri review is up. After 2 months of use and rehandling it's back to me and kicking. Nice little knife for veggies and a beautiful new handle too ;)
