I purchased a kitchen knife from Lee Valley Tools last month when they had a clearance event. I saw it and knew I had to get it. Like most things I buy, I put it down somewhere and forget about it. I found it, washed it up and used it to cut some uber tough landjaeger. Shitmekaknobbers........this thing turned the landjaeger into jello.

It's very similar to the one in the link below. Discontinued or last one in stock. Anyway, I got it for under $40.00. I cut myself just looking at it, gulolol.

It is as sharp as the Hibana Miyabi Kiritsuke knife I bought at the Aberdeen Zwilling Clearance store ($200), but 1000 times more suited for daily use.

Yeah, I bought the Miyabi for its looks and prepping maguro once a year for New Years - oshogatsu.


Oh, forgot. I purchased a Made in Japan, Nakiri knife off amazon. Should be arriving soon. Time to get the whetstones out, 'cause knives like this don't come pre sharpened.
