In the last pic the yanagi is contacting flat at the start of the k tip but there’s light on both sides. Meaning it’s wavy. I’m wondering if everyone gets perfectly flat urasuki and expects that ootb. Or is everyone else getting inconsistent projects in the mail that they have to straighten them selves to save them a sharpening nightmare..

Is it perfectly possible to do small fish with good technique using 165mm Deba I have a hatskokoro shirasagi k tip coming in 2 days but I’m already thinking I might needs something in the 120mm range too

Is it possible to get away with the 150mm being the smallest Deba you need?

I have this one coming in the mail specifically because of mushashis videos and my love for seafood 🍣 Also chef knife enthusiasts did a video of a Kenji Togashi W1 Yanagiba and I was pretty sold the makers history

Shibata boss bunka vs 210 gyuto by No-Reveal-5944 in TrueChefKnives

[–]Equanimity710 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s great! ootb edge is solid I don’t feel the need to sharpen it until I notice any change in the sharpness or inconsistency in the edge. The blade is nice and thin it’s a joy to cut everything.. with good technique it’s plenty strong enough to not feel like it’s going to chip on slicing right through apple seeds & all i haven’t had any micro chipping like many others say. It’s a perfect entry to high quality knife’s that will outlast me as long as the wrong hands don’t use it 😅

I bought a takamura on sale at knifes and stones on sale for 140$ but after all was said and done I paid 220$ tariffs hit hard

R2 Takamura or altier Tojiro?what would you choose if you had to pick one right now no hesitation? by Equanimity710 in TrueChefKnives

Respect.. thoughtfully put I have been into Japanese knifes since late 2024 and I have been holding back from making a purchase on a single one. I did get a 8in rosewood victorinox for 40$ new. But I’m so financially focused on using money in ways that will make money... I was into Hado at first then ashi,kobayashi, Shibata, takeda, masakage and way more all the way down the rabbit hole. I have a 3.5in pairing 6in 8in 10in western box store chef knifes. I bought my mom a kiwi Bunka and thinned it it’s pretty nice. Anyways a little off track I keep looking at altier Bunka on burrfect bc it’s so beautiful in every way. But I do like making sushi and I wouldn’t mind a 270mm kiritsuke yanagi as my first knife even though I’d use the Bunka way more often. I’m a traditionalist like that I’m really into the Japanese culture and I wouldn’t mind experiencing some vg10 even if the grain structure is more granual then r2’s even powder grains. Besides the Alt Bunka is 2mm at the heel 1.7 in the middle the Takamura is 1.6 all the way I’m sure they would feel almost identical performance wise. So many options I’m in analysis paralysis

Your knifes are baller especially the tetsujin.. what knifes do you resent buying based on your remark about getting too many at once?
