Kanehide PS60 210mm gyuto
Hey all! Long time no see. No promises, but since I find myself with a bit of time on my hands, I think I may try to stop in a little more frequently. What better place to start than with the opportunity I just invented to do another knife review?

PS I will try to update in the next few days with pictures. I'm a little rusty and I simply forgot to take any.

That is SUPER tempting, very much in line with what I was looking for, but I was hoping to find a less custom offering that I'd worry less about.gladius wrote: ↑Fri May 08, 2020 5:47 pm—-
Check this deal...

There are a lot of great Bunkas in the value range $80-$130 (there used to be a version of the Kanehide that ran $120-130, but for some reason can't find it anymore, maybe sold out). GLWS, I think that's a great deal, I hope someone picks this up.

Excellent review! I am sure your mom is more than happy haha. Made me think about picking up that custom blue handled PS69 Bunka as well...just not quite sold on the color combination.cedarhouse wrote: ↑Wed May 06, 2020 9:37 pm Hey all! Long time no see.

Re: Kanehide PS60 210mm gyuto
I think there is some validity to that. These western handled j-knives make great gateway drugs. The steel is harder and the edge is thinner than a German knife. That would be my biggest caveat.

I would agree with the caveat.cedarhouse wrote: ↑Mon May 18, 2020 10:14 pmI think there is some validity to that. These western handled j-knives make great gateway drugs. The steel is harder and the edge is thinner than a German knife. That would be my biggest caveat.
Looks do matter, and a western handle (with a stainless blade) can go a long way to east someone's way in. But it can also be misleading.
Oftentimes my hand is inclined to glide and guillotine; with my western beater there's nothing easier, but with any of my Jknives, I just find the fine edges digging into the wood. Doesn't feel pleasant.
