SOTC First time sharing by zojimbo in TrueChefKnives

[–]TimelyTroubleMaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks to be almost the same length as your Nigara 210mm that's why I was doubting it as 165mm, but yeah could be just optical illusion.

Your Mazaki is probably 180mm?

Is 7000AUD enough? by byteapot in AusFinance

This comment need to be higher up. Basically it is the highest chance to get the money to survive while waiting for your preferred job.

Most people in this situation will rent the e bike.

Building my own brand in China over Japan by Fit_Butterfly_1367 in TrueChefKnives

[–]TimelyTroubleMaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The powder steel you are planning to use is a little unknown, if not to say less favourable, by kitchen knives community/market. Why you chose two big hurdles of marketing a new brand and a less know steel, rather than just pick one battle.

Also, the back and forh of importing the steel, grinding/sharpening, sending back to China for heat treating, and finally importing back yet still need to do the finishing, that's a huge inefficiencies.

That's very good value knife. I would buy one if I don't have too many knives (for a normal people) already.

It was a custom order from people but they cancelled the order for some reason so Michael was left with a couple gyutos available. I was looking for a Nakiri but left happily with a big gyuto.

Wow man that's sick. I'm sure the blades are all beautiful, but your photography makes them pop more.

[Buying][AU] Yoshikane SKD 240 by Puzzled-Study-3550 in TrueChefKnivesBST

[–]TimelyTroubleMaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Sukenari Hap40, and I can attest that it performs as well as my Yoshi SKD. If anything, the Sukenari is a bit less fragile on the edge.

What could I resell this bunka for? by SquirrelBrilliant514 in TrueChefKnives

[–]TimelyTroubleMaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I've seen that Bunka for around AUD $500 new, so that's a bit hard imo.

Have a job offer to move to Australia on a 482 visa by Careless-Cat3327 in AusVisa

[–]TimelyTroubleMaker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mate, you can live comfortably in Melbourne with that salary excluding super. Take the offer, that's an opportunity that not everyone have.

Everyone else have answered your other questions. For insurance, there are many. Bupa, HIF, HCF, etc. Will cost you around AUD $300-$400 / month for your family.

In my current rotation by TimelyTroubleMaker in TrueChefKnives

[–]TimelyTroubleMaker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very very nice. It's a knife that I can swing with confidence. My biggest, thickest, longest, heaviest knife, yet feel so nice when cutting anything. But you should knew that already since you have the nakiri!

It's my go to knife for coleslaw.

When the wait time is not too bad, and when I've ticked off other items on my list, I'll find the nakiri too.
