    Normally only use western style knives from a couple of kiwi makers but thought I’d try something different, handmade Japanese Gyuto, these things are next level sharp and so nice to use. Main cutting edge is carbon but majority clad in stainless to help keep maintenance to a minimum. Definitely recommend giving one a go if you get the chance. Don’t bother if you’re rough on gear ��, they’ll last about 2 minutes.

    Wicked. Anryu makes a bloody good quality knife. Lovely and thin behind the edge.

    Was gunna pick up a 240 and a 180 but spent the money on a new grinder instead so will have to have a crack at making one.

    Yea it's beautiful, I wanted the 240 but that was a few months away. This is the 210. Not wrong about how thin it is.
