Cheers to everyone that gets to use these!

I'm in the same boat, Paul. Those numbers hurt a little too much for my wallet. Gorgeous works of art!

It seems like I gravitate to $500+ knives...or sharp knives...or knives made of steel...or knives with a handle...or knives that come in a box...no wonder the wife has to keep a close watch on me. :?

Tell her you just bought two knives for a total of almost $1,200 and see how long you are sleeping in the truck! :mrgreen:

I try not to peeve her without a good reason, it just makes things worse. :D

The new dammy gyuto by Okada-san, like all the previous works of his we saw here, is simply beautiful!
One has to wonder, though, what kind of taper does it have following that 4mm tang (and choil)

Mark, could some more info be added? Is it a "workhorse" style, or more like a sanjo blade that starts thick and ends fine?

208g and 4mm spine, for a 210mm gyuto it sounds very workhorse to me.

I see that they Anryu Blue #2 Hammered Gyuto 240mm came and sold out. Saw the email 20 minutes after it was sent. Of course, sold out. The pain, da pain, to paraphrase Tattoo.

If this is what an ask from Okada-san get us, then I say keep asking :lol: It's a generous hunk of w#2 steel for starters. That makes it a workhorse...until the spine takes a nose dive into the quite pointy tip. That's when it's not a workhorse. It's a nice grind and a decent out-of-the-box sharpness (I hit the strop). Food stick is average to good. The way it's built, I keep thinking it would be perfect for someone with big hands that needs something for exquisite tip work.

If someone on the forum purchased this, please provide some feedback. I was eyeing that one for a bit longer than I should have.

These nigara knives look sweet. The KU looks like scales or something.

It's rarely a question of will you or not, just a question of when or when it will be in stock. I got the fever!
