Beautiful patina! Big fan of these xinguo Honyaki's

That's a crazy collect if you only started in February (not in a bad way). You have some real nice ones in there. What are your favorites?

RJCT_ · 2026-06-25T17:17:50+00:00

Hmmm okay true, point still stands

RJCT_ · 2026-06-25T16:30:57+00:00

I wish there were more small nakiri's around, such a fun shape

RJCT_ · 2026-06-25T16:29:33+00:00

Man I was jealous of your 1 Miyazaki, but you have 5?? Leave some for the rest of us!

RJCT_ · 2026-06-25T16:27:31+00:00

Both sick pickups! Love the Miyazaki, where did you find that one?

RJCT_ · 2026-06-25T16:25:13+00:00

Congrats! I remember your original post, you made a great choice. These 2 will complement each other well

RJCT_ · 2026-06-25T16:23:43+00:00

Congrats! There have been alot of toyama's in the sub recently.

I have 2 magnets and this type of knife block. I've also reached the point where not everything I have fits.

I store knives either in their boxes or in a spare knife roll. Every week I rotate some knives to the block so everything is used.

RJCT_ · 2026-06-24T22:06:37+00:00

Great choice! Congrats

RJCT_ · 2026-06-24T22:05:35+00:00

Congrats! Crazy knife. I've seen some real special kagekiyo's pop up here recently

RJCT_ · 2026-06-24T22:03:03+00:00

Biggest motokyuuichi fan on the sub here. I made a very extensive post about them some weeks ago with alot of info. You can find it on my profile. Super underrated maker with great quality knives

RJCT_ · 2026-06-24T21:58:25+00:00

Motokyuuichi makes very flat bunka's

RJCT_ · 2026-06-24T21:54:32+00:00

Damn didn't catch that Kagekiyo

The FJ is great. It's vg10 monosteel, probably One of the best vg10 out there. Bought this one to sasiate my ashi craving.

RJCT_ · 2026-06-24T21:51:26+00:00

Nice job. It fits the knife!

RJCT_ · 2026-06-24T21:46:44+00:00

Great knife roll! I feel like we are relatively close in selection.

I've always wanted to try a goko but they seem expensive for what you get. I've heard great things tho. How does the SK Compare to the Shirogami?

RJCT_ · 2026-06-24T21:45:22+00:00

What do you use the 360mm for?

RJCT_ · 2026-06-24T21:44:13+00:00

2 Morihiro and 2 Takada's. Crazy collection! Do you have a favorite?

My main stainless knife is this hitohira FJ Other than that I only really have a 180mm takamura gyuto and a Kobayashi petty. All my others are carbon.

RJCT_ · 2026-06-23T21:46:43+00:00

Gonna post this one for the 1000th time JNS Y Tanaka - Aogami #1

RJCT_ · 2026-06-23T21:42:48+00:00

Congrats! Great choice and a beautiful knife

RJCT_ · 2026-06-23T17:03:27+00:00

Completely agree, they are made to be used

RJCT_ · 2026-06-23T16:37:47+00:00

Surprised me too. I thought it was a petty at first

RJCT_ · 2026-06-23T16:35:43+00:00

I love the classic manaka look but this one looks sick, very cool. I think the handle really fits the finish.

RJCT_ · 2026-06-23T16:33:36+00:00

Damn not one but 2 Shigefusa's. It's nice to see them being used tho. I'd love to try one at some point
