Re: Best way of storing knives long term.

Thats a great idea XexoX! I think wrapping individually will be more effective as it really seals all around the blade. I have found some small width rolls that will allow me to box most of them so I am going ahead with the food sealer. And no oil! I will be so happy when all our stuff is packed and...

Re: Best way of storing knives long term.

Thanks Jeff. It's so interesting how everyone has their own favorite way. I like the no oil to be honest. I've just wrapped 3 of them and have not used the oil so I will continue down that path I think. I just need to get more of the narrow roll material so that I can fit them back in their boxes. I...

Re: Best way of storing knives long term.

I just sealed the first one. It looks great and worked well. But it results in a knife that will not fit into its original box. Not a big deal with just a few but my collection is rather large and I would end up with several shipping boxes full of just empty knife boxes! Not so desirable. Might have...

Re: Best way of storing knives long term.

Great way of looking at the “problem” of collecting Joe. I absolutely fell down the rabbit hole and it became quite an obsession….especially with Konosuke. It didn’t help that for many years I was doing all the product write ups for Mark and took my payment in knives! He certainly did not help me de...

I would vote for the Shiro. It’s such a great knife and holds a screaming edge. Looks cool too!

Re: WTS - a few knives to help support #Mauistrong

Hello, I am interested in purchasing the Matsubara bunka but I am wondering if it has a good edge on it because I haven’t learned to sharpen yet and I don’t have any connections in Petaluma, CA (Sonoma County). Also what is pay via “F&F”? Thank you! Jonathan I will sharpen it before it leaves. ...

Re: Best way of storing knives long term.

Actually I think Panama might be a bit less of a knife killer than Maui. Especially as we lived on a very windy beach here so Mr Salty was always a visitor. It rains a lot in Panama but I won’t be getting the salt! But I’m still thinking I might sell off a lot more knives before we leave. Then every...

Re: Best way of storing knives long term.

Thanks mate! I am so excited for my art direction. So many new colors, traditions, costumes and animals. But very little snow in Panama as far as I know. There are a couple of high peaks that can get a light dusting but unlike Maui's Haleakala they never see much snow. But a sandy beach is going to ...
