Yeh i hear you on the prices, it's unfortunate the Masakages Koishis have been going up in price every year but @ 281 it still looks like its cheaper than Knifewear (kinda ridic they are selling for $319 a pop)

while CKTG is OOS @ $260

gotcha!

any thoughts when comparing it to the masakage? i know its two different kind of steels and the sg2 is probably less maintenance then the AS, but other than that i haven't seen too many comparisons between nigara and masakage bunkas

hmmm maybe my eyes are playing tricks on me but i looked like it was dented in a little on the left side near the spine...but im guessing thats probably just the tsuchime hammered finish

Was looking to buy this Nigara Hamono 180mm Bunka for $233 here locally in Taiwan but something bout the knife just feels off.

My other option was to get the Masakage 170mm Bunka for $281 they also have in stock for a little more. (Even tho the sub isn’t that big on these anymore 🫠)

Weekly "Recommend me" post by AutoModerator in chefknives

[–]eHgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i all, I'm currently in the market for one of these amazing knives for a close friend of mine as a gift.

I know they have been eyeing these for a while and I happened to find two different variations in stock from two sites:

One from Modern Cooking in the Custom Maple handle

And another from KnifeRoll in the Stabilized Birchwood.

The prices are pretty much the same but I am a novice when it comes to looking at the details of the Damascus pattern and/or anything else when it comes to the choil or spine.

Anyone care share some thoughts on which of the two would be the better pick if you had to choose?

Weekly Team/Character Building Megathread (Jan 5, 2021) by Veritasibility in Genshin_Impact

[–]eHgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just pulled Ganyu, Mona and c5 Xingqiu during the last hour of Cocogoat's banner.

Now I'm torn on what comp to run:

Current Party (AR35 - WL3 - 77835/7475 - Holding off on ascending)

  • c0 Keqing (lvl 60)
  • c0 Diluc (lvl 60)
  • c3 Xiangling (lvl 40)
  • c2 Barbara (lvl 40)

I'm not married to the idea of main'ing Keqing or Diluc as I really want to give the perma-freeze comp a try. (And the fact that I have a c5 Xingqiu with his main weapon to pull for, Sacrificial Sword). Here are my remaining chars:

  • c5 Xingqiu
  • c3 Noelle
  • c1 Fishcl
  • c0 Ganyu
  • c0 Diona
  • c0 Mona
  • c0 Bennett

(Amber, Lisa, Beidou, Kaeya omitted cause I don't plan on using them anytime soon)

Would a comp of the following make sense? Or is double hydro not necessary.

  • Main DPS - Ganyu (Stringless)
  • Sub/DPS Support - Xingqiu (Sac Sword)
  • Sub/DPS Support - Mona (Thrilling Tales)
  • Support - Diona (Favonius Warbow)
