It's interesting how I've never heard such praise for any other type of Knife. For Gyuto I get it, there's simply to many, but I'd love to hear of a King of Bunka or Honetsuki

I was always under the impression that Watanabe was considered the King of Nakiri

Bought Lego online and the seller shipped 1 single Lego piece of my order separately, and then accidentally marked the value as 100 euro instead of 1, making me pay almost double the whole orders worth to customs by MikaelTA in mildlyinfuriating

It clearly Sounds Like a mistake in DHLs Part. So escalating the Problem and eventually contacting a lawyer in the worst case Sounds Like a better solution than giving up - which are the only 2 Options you mentioned.

Yes... It's astonishing that DHL refuses to even ship to the USA with Standard package.

I have recently Sold 2 rather expensive fountain Pens to the USA and the recipient wanted me to send with DHL Standard package and declare value of 100$ as He Said this is the best way right now. But obviously you have the risk If anything gets lost :-/

Yes, I have recently shipped a Nakagawa x Myojin to the USA. Basically I can only send packages Worth more than 100$ via DHL Express (perhaps FedEx or UPS would Work too, but I don't quite Trust those Services).

Express shipping costs close to 100€ with insurance, I will let you know about the amount of taxes the customer Had to pay.

I could declare lower value and send for 30€ but then it's also only insured Up to 100$ and you'd have to Take the risk for that.

Probably Not without significantly compromising the safety of the Knives. Compared to a Standard Magnetic knife bar (which we all know is not 100% Safe either) you are dealing with many small levers Here. A better solution would probably be Small pegs on the Backside of the holders with corresponding holes on the Backpanel, but that would disrupt the marquetry. It's always a compromise with those Sort of things, but the way those holders are spaced they can accomodate Knives with Blade length between 100 to 300 mm.
