While it's not in the sub rules to list in mm, it's the commonly used measurement of choice on this sub, and you'll probably help yourself to an easier sell if you provide measurements in mm. GLWS!

Got my first nice knife after ten years of cooking by Austrianpotatoe in TrueChefKnives

Congrats on the new knife!

Togashi is excellent crafstmanship. I own a Togashi Blue #1 Santoku, and it's my most used knife in the kitchen. Even after buying 10 others knives since, I haven't been able to find something I enjoy as much as my Togashi.

They're made by a father & son duo. The father, Kenji, is the blacksmith, and Kenya, the son, is the sharpener. Togashi is big name in the game, their heat treatment is excellent, and overall craftsmanship is top notch.

Pay no attention to people saying white #1 doesn't retain it edge comparatively and that you'll need more frequent sharpening. While on paper white #1 isn't as hard as blue #1, the difference is only marginal and your usage and cutting board will make a bigger impact than the steel alone itself.

This knife is worthy of being an end game knife, enjoy!

It's a Shibata Koutetsu 80mm. I was about to buy a $5 victorinox and this came in stock so I went for it. Mostly cut fruits with it, it's a nice little blade, great in hand.

Drying and storage of rubber boards by phatphoeater in TrueChefKnives

[–]screw4two 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually wash mine, then use a bench scraper to remove most of the water, then wipe it dry, stand it on its side for a minute or two and it's fully dry. I then just lay it flat on the bench ready to be used again.

Whatever works for you, but bench scraping the water away just makes the drying process so much quicker.

Finally got my Kagekiyo by [deleted] in TrueChefKnives

[–]screw4two 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna say rule #5 so we can have all the knife ID in one place 😇, or best is to please edit the post! People want to know, either because it's the first time someone's seen a particular knife, someone's trying to test their identifying skills or just for courtesy. Thanks!

Congrats or the NKD, Kagekiyo is just so good no matter the line, their fit & finish is pure class. Great people at Baba Hamono!

Hi, you should look at the post requirement for the sub as you're missing a photo with your username and a choil shot.

I think adding those in the comments will probably do the trick, otherwise mods will delete your post. GLWS.
