Faceybook sez it's Devin's Bithday. Hope you have a great one and many more!

This one: SOLD - Tsourkan 210 AEB-L WH Gyuto w/Saya I like the knife but found a very slight lefty bias when (1) chopping fast and (2) shaving scallions. And I found a 225, which has more to do with my selling this one than the bias. As described the Marko "D" is oriented left but fine for...

I bought sister an Encore about 10 years ago, she tells me it's stopped working. Can anyone recommend a coffee shop (or other small appliance) repair shop in/near Portland? Going straight to Baratza if no joy here. Thanks.

It seems it's spamming season now (Feb 2023) more than ever. The moderators are getting deluged with posts our spam filter software is rejecting and thus require manual review and editing. And we don't have time for much of that. A couple things to make life easier for everyone. If you post...

Stop.

Not been able to stitch together 4 days for entirely too long. Good to be back in "church".

Looks like I'm going to start traveling a good bit for work, most of it involving leaving on a jet plane.... I usually carry light, 4 knives and some tools in JKI's portfolio or one of the Ultimate Edge bags. But what to carry the knife bag in? Thinking of things like a good backpack or even...
