Ah, thanks Taz. I just looked at the small greyed-out photo and missed that it had no nashiji finish.

Now I'm going to have to explain to my wife why I need another knife that she will say is just the same as the one I already have haha

Too soon to celebrate. As Mr. Taz has mentioned, they haven't arrived yet. If you need any enabling to make a purchase, I'll provide encouraging words. :mrgreen:

I think it's a week or two to get to the US from Japan IIRC?

I have some news about new stuff coming but I need to wait for Kosuke to give me permission to talk about it.

I appreciate your kind offer to get me into more trouble haha. However if these are the Yahiko offering under a different brand name, I already have one. Or am I missing something here .................??

I looked and haven't seen a Kosuke post here since Sept of last year so maybe he doesn't follow this anymore, or maybe tired of too much demand. But my question is, how come no Nakiri's? I don't think i ever saw one offered and I don't think they are as complicated to make as a gyuto, and I'm sure the demand is there.
Kosuke: please make some Nakiri's for us Nakiri fans! HD2/SLD/SKD or a stainless clad?

There have been several Konosuke nakiri models that have been produced. There are some available on the web.

A good customer of ours wants to donate his Konosuke Tetsujin Gyuto 210mm Saya Included. We agreed to facilitate the sale and once done he will ship the knife to you immediately. The knife is in new condition and 100% of the proceeds will go to aid the Hawaii Community Foundation. USA orders only please.

Here is a link to purchase it: https://www.chefknivestogo.com/kotegy24sain.html

Here is the actual knife:

Someone purchased it from overseas so I'm going to re-list it once I tell him we can't ship to him. It should be later today.

Thanks to the seller and to you, Mark, and to Ray, who I am sure inspired this act. What a great contribution!

Mahalo Joe. I agree that was a really nice act. Well done all.
I still have a couple more knives to sell that I want to donate the proceeds from.
