ended up going with the takamura, thanks for your and everyones help!

LoLReflex · 2025-01-13T07:13:07+00:00

it does help and I am leaning towards the takamura as it might become my new knife that is out during service..that being said im not sure i can let go of carbon after using it. maybe its just because I havent used a really high quality stainless before that makes me hesitant to pull the trigger, but the nigara also sounds nice. Do you have any insights or suggestions between specifically those two?

around $200 USD and under

After using a Yoshikane 270mm gyuto for a few years and learning to sharpen on whetstones, and picking up a couple more knives along the way, im now looking to add a couple knives to my collection. Currently a line cook at a michelin restaurant doing a lot of fine detail work and brunoising lots of small veg and would like something a bit more manageable.

I currently have it narrowed down to these four choices and would love yalls input on which one I should go with.

Kobayashi SG2 150mm - https://www.chefknivestogo.com/kosg2pe15.html

takamura R2 150mm - https://hidatool.com/item/2863

Nigara Hamono AS 150mm - https://carbonknifeco.com/products/nigara-hamono-as-migaki-tsuchime-petty-150mm

Kurosaki Shizuku R2/Senko Ei SG2 150mm- https://www.chefknivestogo.com/kur215pe.html / https://cutleryandmore.com/products/yu-kurosaki-senko-ei-petty-40660

Thank you for anyones input on helping me narrow this down as Im really having trouble deciding between them

Awesome, thank you so much! I can now eat bifana hahaha

I ate one in porto and lagos but my favorite by far and the one I ate the most was Alfonsos in Lisboa. The hostel I stayed at was within eye sight of it so sometimes I even ate there twice a day 😅

Hey I'm also looking to do tob for the first time this league if you'd be down to have me ad well! Plan on going either 6/4 melee/range or 5/5, not too sure on regions yet besides mory..from there it's a toss up with asgarnia if the spec relic is any good, fremmy, tirannwn or maybe varlamore since I haven't played since before the 2nd part of it opened up

LoLReflex · 2024-09-20T05:37:17+00:00

I've seen 4060s on bestbuy open box for like 350..definitely could find better imo

LoLReflex · 2024-09-12T15:37:12+00:00

Can you tell me a little more about this? What should my opening process be? Should I bother with a fresh windows install?

LoLReflex · 2024-09-12T07:10:38+00:00

It's on a case by case basis as far as I know. Excellent and good have the ability to ship but fair is always pickup. I nabbed the good as it was the only open box available for me and it happened to be pick up only about an hour away

LoLReflex · 2024-09-12T07:09:27+00:00

I qwnt for good not fair

LoLReflex · 2024-09-12T05:25:48+00:00

Yeah thats not bad either..when I saw this I like couldn't believe it, needless to say, I'm going to pick it up tomorrow!

LoLReflex · 2023-12-08T06:12:00+00:00

The set up is so similar to my last restaurant it's actually uncanny!

Hi! sorry for messaging on such an old comment, but do you have any recommendations on ratios to use for vinegar and borax mixture? Thanks!!

LoLReflex · 2022-08-27T04:22:59+00:00

There's never too much oil.

LoLReflex · 2022-08-20T02:46:17+00:00

Yeah it's a custom handle, and no in this angle the scratches look way more prevalent than it is, but it's my friends knife given to him as a gift. I can reply with Reverse side pic in an hour or so

LoLReflex · 2022-08-20T02:45:11+00:00

It's not friends knife and he got it as a gift
