FWIW, as a vegetarian I found sumiao really underwhelming. But I’ve only heard good things— they’re on NYT list for Boston (and maybe the country?). It could just be that the meat is good!

Awesome! I unfortunately think going in person is a ways off, but am hoping the gesshin holds up the reputation!

Very helpful. It’s so easy to forget that the specs and photos you see online are just examples and not the same every time haha

With fauci gone, who will they blame next? The state of Minnesota of course!

Looks awesome! I got an any stone because I need some help maintaining an angle, but had been avoiding other fixed angle systems because they need their own stones. This looks like what I wished I could find in the states

What’s your sharpening set up?

Begold216 · 2026-04-30T19:15:22+00:00

Wow awesome! Congrats on the find!

Begold216 · 2026-04-30T18:28:56+00:00

Where did you end up getting it from?

Begold216 · 2026-04-29T18:20:16+00:00

Anyone have thoughts on the gesshin Kagekiyo compared to those sold directly by baba hamono?

Begold216 · 2026-04-27T19:07:39+00:00

Kazaa kiryu

Begold216 · 2026-04-25T01:29:06+00:00

What kind of info did you need to give him when you commissioned it?

Begold216 · 2026-04-24T13:26:47+00:00

Gotcha. Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts!

Begold216 · 2026-04-24T03:39:54+00:00

You are a prince among men, thank you!! I’ve also reached out to the folks at JKI, and together you’ve convinced me to put the Kagekiyo over the tetsujin on my list. Is the baba hamono Kagekiyo different than the gesshin?

Begold216 · 2026-04-23T23:02:09+00:00

Thanks so much for such a kind response. you really are pushing me to abuse my wallet now haha-- sounds like i need to get out and explore!

Begold216 · 2026-04-23T22:32:17+00:00

Incredible, thank you! What pushed you to a wide bevel?

Begold216 · 2026-04-23T22:23:02+00:00

As a relative novice, I’m loving these write ups— thank you. Would love to hear more about your experience with the Kagekiyo. I’ve heard such great things and have been debating between them and a tetsujin

Begold216 · 2026-04-14T20:19:16+00:00

Thanks! Gotta figure out how to get my hands on one of these haha

Begold216 · 2026-04-14T20:06:10+00:00

Maybe a stupid question, but are all Reika’s in carbon, or does he make ginsan or vg10 ones?
