Hi, I had an account on the old forums (same username)

I was wondering if there was a way to migrate my old post count so I could post on the classifieds? Unfortunately I need to part with some prized possessions (Konosukes)

Hi

Name is Nikolai Kirkham from Tenants Harbor Maine.
I’ve met one forum member Kevin Solsten and seen his knives also have looked around here for a bit. Can’t wait to graduate from my stainless Wusthof Santoku that is 20 years old now! Looking at a new Santoku- perhaps Kanehide or Yoki .. also liking the Konosuke knives .. Fujiyama and even stainless ..

We have children and partners who put everything in the sink and even dishwasher including wooden and wooden handled utensils and cutting boards. So as much as I like the idea of honing a sick AS edge before chopping dinner, there is a learning curve, and I prefer my magnetic knife rack to having to hide things for fear of them getting misused. So there is my dilemma.

Hello, I am new to the forum and I want to thank you! I have been working and or running professional kitchens for 18 years now and I'm always giving info and pointers on knives, not only technique but also what knife would suit the person better. In fact I have become the "guy to talk to" when it comes to knives. I found cktg about a year ago and since then it has literally made my life so much easier with the extent of detail you put into informing your clientele of your products. I have sold 6 knives from your site and everyone has not only been a great product but also been backed by amazing customer service, not to mention the unheard of shipping rate! I myself have not bought my own yet because I'm holding out for the perfect set. I mainly joined to hopefully be "in the loop" for certain restocks or possible new products to come out. And if there is any way I can help please feel free to ask.

Hi. I'm quite new to all of this, and am a rank beginner. That hasn't stopped me from getting obsessed with knives, though my current enjoyment of them does not yet extend much to the vocabulary and the concepts. In short, I'll probably babble once I get the courage to talk.

I just saw this forum after purchasing my first knife at the store - a Konosuke MB White #2 Gyuto 240mm. Just like a crazed beginner to overspend on something that he knows precious little about, but knows that that he will enjoy.

I had the further financial misfortune to learn that I'm just a few doors down from one of 2 (afaik) San Francisco cutlery stores, The Town Cutler....i did pick up one of these: https://towncutler.com/collections/kniv ... rbon-steel

I also recently bought a beautiful cutting board from the Boardsmith. I hadn't realized how much more pleasurable the cutting experience is on such a nice cutting board (compared to my previous cheap one, purchased on Amazon).

Need to see some more pictures of some awesome fish and custom Spydercos!

Hi there,

I started on this slippery slope after going to a sharpening class with my gf. She didn't really care much for the sharpening but it got me hooked. At least now I can blame my gf for all my expenses.
