I would love to see a 240 version! This is from the first batch made a few years ago. It's a stunner. The amazing level of f&f together with that great steel equals pure Konosuke magic. I highly recommend this knife! https://knifelife7.files.wordpress.com/2019/08/konoskd-3.jpg Oh man that knife...

Nihei SLD Nishaji 210mm This one looks like it’s going to be a fun knife. Was handle installed straight./ Looks off center in the choil shot The handle is offset. With a pinch grip it doesn’t effect my cutting, however it is an annoyance. For me, the handle is oversized, which makes me want to reha...

This knife has a ginormous handle though, it throws me off a bit. All the better to wield it with, my dear :twisted: EDIT: Hey, I just looked up the Nihei SLD and found that yours is offered in one store, but an exact version by Konosuke is offered in another :o On the face of it, the difference is...

Maui, All the things you just mentioned are what drew me to the knife too 😂. I was a bit surprised in a pleasant way with this one. The edge is nice and thin and ootb sharpness was really good. The handle is pretty nice, but a bit larger than my other knives. I will do a little write up on it in a f...

Shigehiro 240. This one is a bit of a heavyweight. The convening feels really nice! I hope this fat girl has good food release!

Try opening your order history at CKTG... It will be a interventionist experience. Also, when you have literally bought or repurposed furniture to store your knives and stones... You have arrived. This strikes close to home! I just picked up a curio cabinet, that I don’t need at all. But I saw the ...

Thank you Sean-in-AK! What do you think of these pads Mark sells? https://www.chefknivestogo.com/3x4sotomisap.html I’m interested in doing some softening of a spine & choil but not sure I’m motivated enough to search for a file. And I’ve sanded plenty of things with wet/dry and am not looking f...

Automotive painter here. So I have quite a bit of time spent playing with the different types of sandpaper and using them on various substrates. There are 3 basic types of abrasives used on automotive sandpaper’s. Aluminum Oxide, Ceramic and diamond. Within these types of abrasive there are varying ...

For a short gyuto, I really enjoy this knife. Ootb sharpness is great too. I use this knife quite a bit for light meat trimming duties, smaller amounts of veggie prep and for detail work. https://www.chefknivestogo.com/haaswagy21.html A more recent knife in the collection is also fast becoming a fav...

This knife looks like it checks all your boxes. Light, thin, wa handle, holds an edge and priced where you won’t cringe if somebody uses it. I can’t speak first hand on this particular knife, but I have been very impressed by Yahiko knives in general.

You could always remove the skin to cook separately. Then you can use your familiar cooking method for the belly and fry slices of the skin to get some crunchy garnish.

I have done this a few times with extra chicken skins with great results.

Lol you guys are knife nerds on such a higher level than I. I mean absolutely no disrespect with that statement. I am smiling at all of you lusting after something that will bring happiness to your lives . One day I will probably be right there with you haha

That’s pretty cool!

I had that happen before using Safari. I thought it was due to the items being in the cart for a about a week before actually ordering.

Thanks for adding some first hand info and pic of the knifeblock 360 btbyrd.

I would love to see what you come up with!

Here are a couple of photos of the kamlif knife block with various sized knives on them for reference. 971CDD8E-29BD-4F04-BE89-B0B6834A5DE4.jpeg The knife on the left side in this pic is 215mm, there is probably another 10-12mm of room vertically for a slightly longer blade. 225mm being max blade le...

Datster- awesome setup!! I love it!

Ben- sounds great! I was hoping this would peek your interest. I did start a thread on the subject and plan to add more to it tonight after work.
