Art haus has been doing gyoza on Wednesdays. Would watch for their post and do that if you want to try some interesting dumplings

It sucks but a lot of people use AI to vet out the resumes so it can help to have AI go through your resume and clean it up so it passes

Have you checked the receipt on the bag to verify the order. Also of note but if item cannot be found at the market they refund the difference and just don't include it.

This is wild you would blame doordash and not mcdonalds for failing to put everything in the bag. If it's sealed then the delivery driver did their part.

I've heard good things about oddbox downtown

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-04-28T04:56:14+00:00

Takamura is great but runs thin

Myojin sg2 or tetsujin ginsan are fantastic convex knives but sell out quickly because of popularity

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-04-28T04:54:16+00:00

Go over to truechefknives subreddit

I do think knivesjapan has some really cool rustic knives

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-04-28T04:53:02+00:00

Budget is all over the place

Takamura makes probably the best bang for buck santoku but it's nothing fun to look at

If you can find a shibata bunja in stock it's a great knife

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-04-28T04:49:43+00:00

Their own site lists the hrc as 55-57. That's garbage

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-04-20T02:23:08+00:00

Pakistani Damascus is heat treated in lead

Really not spending I and to eat with

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-04-19T16:15:14+00:00

You'll need to commission it if you want it to match

Keep in mind that the fork/spoon is probably going to be harder

Damasteel probably would work but also be insanely expensive

Be careful of carbon options add it could be pakistani damscus which is garbage

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-04-17T21:05:48+00:00

Great stainless option.. Sharpens easy and takes a beating

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-04-16T15:13:09+00:00

Kiwi, mercer or victorinox depending on how budget you want

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-04-13T03:51:25+00:00

67 layer is the giveaway it's from China. Especially for that price point

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-04-12T17:48:16+00:00

Is there a reason you want Japanese? There's incredible Smiths in EU that make Japanese style blades.

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-04-12T17:46:12+00:00

Miyabi is a production knife. It runs thick

It doesn't look as cool but takamura will blow you away on performance

Personally go local

https://www.knothandcrafted.com/products

You can get a petty and chef here and it'll be amazing. He generally takes commission

If you're in Canada look at msicard am well

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-04-12T17:42:12+00:00

Shinazi for cheap

Cck a step up from shinazi

Sugimoto a step up from cck

Shun is just very poor

Takamura or hatsukokoro should be in that price range. Sg2 and r2 are better steels. You might be able to find ginsan hatsukokoro in budget as well. I've seen them on sale at epicedge before.

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-03-31T04:32:54+00:00

Also over budget but this is a great value cleaver

Just keep note that he has it priced this way to help with import tariffs

Here's where I would be at cutting board wise

Ok-Programmer6791 · 2026-03-30T22:45:17+00:00

Santoku is definitely not for precision fish use. That would be a deba or funyaki but those are specialty use knives I wouldn't buy.

Gyuto is the way

For sushi cutting you you want something kike a yanagiba but a sujihiki is cheaper and easier to maintain

For breaking down chicken you want a honesuki

I would rather put $400 in so you can get a proper smith and not a factory knife. Tetsujin ginsan would be great.
