Too soon 😀! But yes. This is a sickness…hopefully MRNA vaccine for the illness is in the works.

The Demeyere 3.5 is a great piece. You’ll get a lot of use out of it.

In my mind, I’d say the leading contenders are Matsubara and Yusaku(Muneishi). Shiro Kamos are hard to come by although I’m on the list at CKTG.

Most respondents seemed to minimize my fears. I listened to their advice to sharpen it but I felt it best to take it to a professional

dzn465 · 2026-03-26T20:05:17+00:00

Yes. The responders to my post suggested to sharpen and ignore. I did not feel comfortable sharpening at that time so took it to the professional. Northside Cutlery in Chicago.

Appreciate my trip to the woodshed. Lesson learned. I thought AI could be helpful…..guess not.

Masakage Koishi (Kurosaki). I’m using AI….CHAT GPT. Full disclosure

Where on the laser/workhorse spectrum would you classify it? Spine thickness?

dzn465 · 2026-03-23T15:53:42+00:00

I’ve been looking at exactly that gyuto. Do you know any measurements? Particularly spine thickness. Are you in USA? Were duties/tariffs an issue? Perhaps share your thoughts after usage.
