A GOOD JAPANESE KNIFE

[@olivierturgeon]

i really dream about going to place like that i think this is the fiftyith time i watch this video and im always impressed of the profesionalism

[@JakeB090489]

wow, judging from the really detailed sharpening process these knives probably come with a wicked sharp edge

[@vince99percent]

Can't imagine knives displayed like this anywhere in europe!

[@bluedonkeyman]

that was a good video, imagine that it was "recommended for me by youtube" and they actually picked something I liked, hmmm

[@hektoram]

i use damascus steel it stays sharp because of the extremely hard center of the blade, there are normally 32-67 layers of steel arround the hard center steel, i use it for professional cooking and it saves me alot a time, because it stays sharp for so long :) im using: kai shun and mac damascus

[@Cuchilleriadelprofesional]

Artesanal Sharpening. Fantastic.

There are still small number of Nihonto-makers in Japan and they'll make a customized kitchen knife for you. But they don't make it for just everybody. You have to show your credential that you have a respectable career in Japanese cuisine first, then they'll put you on the long waiting list. A chef I used to know once showed me one. It looked different. He rarely used it, he kept it like his most prized treasure.

[@manhunteress]

Oh lordy im actually drooling watching this..............

Solingen knives are some of the best factory made knives in the world, but still cannot compare to the best hand crafted knives from Japan. There must be good reasons why Henckels, the most famous of all Solingen brands, choose to manufactur their top line, the Twin Cermax M66, in Seki rather than Solingen.

[@icychillgrill3]

@ChronicMist no, these are traditional japanese knives. And anyway the Samurai era was like 900 years. The knives evolved with the swords. But to answer your question they used knives.

[@liyanghu5628]

I just bought a pair from that shop. :3

[@voodish2]

I got really used to the sashimi knife for any clean and fast dicing or slicing. But one more knife cannot hurt ;). I´m thinking about getting a santoku, very similar to the usuba, a little more versatile.

[@0100101101001011]

agree, i own a 250 € Deba but you can get a pretty decent knife for about 60-100$, or even a Global ( japanese ones) are a decent choice, i would spend that much if you aint a professional, and even then it a lot of cash for a knife.They are a work of art though.

[@number1Schumacherfan]

German knives made in Solingen are the way to go.

[@tuatahi]

micidiale sto video =) m'é venuta na k..... dievoglia d'andá in giappone... giá che é sogno da sempre, poi io faccio spesso sushi e sashimi, ma co sti coltelli del k... che abbiamo quí in germania, mamm mia... bellissimo video, e lasciali perdere gl'altri stronzi che non capiscono un k... salutoni dalla fredda germania

[@WalterBerriosReyes]

¡good job!

[@FedeGherbaz]

che spettacolo... una curiosita , quanto viene un coltello di quelli li in giappone? ciao :)

[@finessewes9119]

I dares someone to tell them they're doing it wrong.

[@xdhatcherx]

cool vid. wish i knew what they were saying when they were talking in the shop.

[@2007TypeR]

I prefer stainless. It's easier to clean the blood and leaves less evidence.

[@tychan2006]

Good video but i wished there was subtitles...

[@TheFallenOne71]

Expected Jackie Chan to jump out when I heard the music.

[@zodawg0079]

The traveler's are speaking Italian (my second language). I wish I could understand the Japanese, though.

[@KiaraXiong]

do i really wish i know japanese like you

[@allgoo19]

JesusFucking Chris84: Maybe you are interested to know what kind of knife it was. It was Usuba boucho in rather large size with traditional straight wooden handle for a good reason. It wasn't made of fancy handle for showing off purpose you can find in commercially made knives. If I remember correctly, it was beveled one side for right hand use.

[@RichL123]

@tubetubetube His comment was far from racist. He is correct instating samurai were savage people because they were for the most part. No where in his comment does he say the Japanese are now.

[@f4ftantum]

i fucking love japan

[@emel60]

how much did it cost?

[@Gaurav.Tandon]

Can anybody tell me a cheaper way to procure these knives in india ! is it possible for anybody to help me as i need them desparately !!

[@laughingtiger123]

If you want amazing Japanese knives, check out the Moritaka Hamono website. Small family business. Woman takes orders, two guys make blades, one guy does nothing but make handles. I own two of their knives and I swear by them for everyday use. Very finely made handmade knives... and quite affordable. Much superior than a Seki knife. They will make them to your specs and it takes a few weeks. Awesome.

[@kollinlayne123]

4 years later a tsunami

[@AGC828]

Surprised they used a grinding wheel and not whetstones. Even in Japan. Go figure. Faster tor them I guess.

[@daggerofblack]

Give me all your money, i have a knife

[@Squarerig]

Kyoko ich liebe Dich!

[@allgoo19]

JesusFuckingChris84: I didn't know a lot about metal., so I didn't ask. I'm talking about the knives you'll never see in advertisement. If they can't keep up the production and have to put you on the list, they probably don't need to advertise. The words spread from mouth to mouth who owns it. You can find the knives made with half way traditional technic but not the traditional metal at several hundreds$ online. If you want the traditional technic & metal, put one or two more 0 at the end.

[@Pitdawg2007]

dont think one knife worth $300, seriously.

[@kollinlayne123]

what these Japanese know 4 years later a tsunami was gonna hit!!!

[@bigobrother123]

zombie apocalypse ready!!

[@allgoo19]

JesuFuckingChrist84: No I didn't ask how much he paid. It's not polite to ask such a question to a respectable chef or to anybody unless he's selling it. There's a market for those super fancy tools of trade. It gives the buyer an impression that he was given another certificate towards his accomplishment.

[@jetleeming]

japan should very expert with knife remainder us of samurai.which is use for savage people at ancient japan history, now they turn to slicing fish(sushi) instead of slicing people.

[@MrKespro]

@antonkun99 pleas contakt shop knife japanese dík J.Prokeš

[@CantE8tCheese]

Look mate the whole reason that japanese knifes are expensive is because of the process of making them is complex and that lots of time and skill has gone into perfecting it. And for that reason anything an indian makes will not and could not be consider a japanese or japanese style knife! It'll just be a cheap generic knife.. BTW you are cheap, your first message confirms this! HAHA Anyway just go buy a PROPER japanese knife!

[@kaldicuct]

I dont beleive that guy is American. Korean maybe because of the things he watches. Not all Americans are racist, not all racists are American. I'm guessing you are from /b/ though.

[@mobby1986]

lol :)

[@CantE8tCheese]

No I don't think Indians are cheap from watching this one video. I have indian friends they say indians are cheap, Russell Peters the comedian say indians are cheap! Everyone knows indians a cheap! topasianchef007 proved my point! ha ha Cheap cheap!!
