Steve, it sounds like you were pretty impressed by the Kuwabara knives all things considered. Do you have any additional thoughts, particularly when compared to their competition?

@Lepus, to be honest, I didn't know that to expect, given that the performance of hand hammered KU knives can be all over the board. The Bunka in particular didn't seem all that thin at the edge, so I was expecting ho-hum performance and boy, was I wrong :-). Compared to the competition, I'm a bit smitten with the single authorship aspect of these and dare I say, the unassuming appearance (meaning "wabi-sabi" in spades) that belies their actual performance. My sample size is obviously quite small, but it seems Kuwabara-san knows his stuff when it comes to making a knife perform well. I'm interested to see more feedback from other users. I know that Mark never cherry picks the knives he sends, unless I ask for something specific like height, etc.

Since I get to try so many knives, ones that perform really well get my attention. What can I say, I'm a sucker for an onion dice that's slick as snot ;-).
