Asking $400 shipped in U.S. 229 x 54, 231g. Well-crafted honyaki from a well respected maker (Steffen Toksvig) who's no lot currently producing. I considered this underpriced when first listed, still think so. I'm moving away from most western handles and have too many knives, so this one needs...

My time is winding down in Japan, and I'm wondering about the number of type and of short (in height), long knives I should keep. I've got three knives and two slots, so (at least) one is going to go. I will definitely keep a stainless suji. In reality, that is all I need. I also have a carbon...

After spending years trying many knives and deciding on which are keepers, I sometimes contemplate going back to a more modest set (keeping only knives that were about $300 or less). If I keep them sharp, they’d serve me well. Has anyone ever downgraded like that? How did you feel about it...
