Sorry if the audio seems off. Just realized after uploading that I forgot to normalize the audio 😅. We will get back into the swing of things and trying to decide which wireless lav to get to better the audio quality. 😃🙏

Got a Daovua bunka and think its pretty great. Nothing fancy or perfect but functional. Been holding out on the chinese chef knife for a while but really want one.

I’d be interested to see if that discoloration near the edge would come off with a bit of stropping…I bought that same knife a couple months ago and was pleasantly surprised that it was not a “project knife”. Really like it; it’s a tool not a jewel!

It didn't unfortunately. I actually did a touchup on the edge and the discoloration is still there. But agreed that they are workhorses that you can use without hesitation. Some of my nicer Japanese knives, I definitely tip toe around using them just because LOL

Have you explored or considered exploring the Masahiro Chinese Chef knives? They are made in Seki, Japan and use a lower cost stainless steel alloy that Masahio uses for many of their lower cost knives, expeccially compared to laminated white and blue paper steels from Hitachi or VG steels. The TX and TS 101-104 lineup are sold at prices similar to the Dao Vua knives but are stainless and I presume machine finished at this price point.

Really appreciating the information in your videos lately. Any particular recommendations for a Cai Dao for someone newer to the style but familiar with both classical European and Japanese kitchen knives? I feel like it'd be an excellent all around knife for vegetable and boneless protein prep at work.

Hey! Thank you for your support! I feel like the knife skills is pretty transferable between the knives. I think the grip is the only thing that takes some getting use to. This daovua is nice and so are the shibazi. I have one that I still need to review but the first impression is nice. 😃🙏

I've got several Dao Vuas and was always impressed with the general quality of the fit and finish, considering the price and how they're made. But one thing I noticed recently is two out of the three have handles that are noticeably out of line with the blade. Doesn't really matter much if you use a pinch grip, and it's fixable, but just a thing to be aware of if that matters to you. I continue to love my beater knives at least as much as the high-end ones. : )

Yes, I agree here. The one piece handle doesn't have the issue but the ones with multiple pieces of wood is a bit out of line. I got one of their slicers and have that issue as well.

You have any pointers or info on how exactly to sand that finish off? What kind/type/brand of sandpaper and the method?
@BetweenTwoForks
@BetweenTwoForks 3 жыл бұрын
I took the kurouchi finish off of my gyuto. I was working on thinning the knife and reprofiling and it came off during the thinning process. I would expect it to come off with wet/dry sandpaper. Start at like 220 grit and work your way up. I ended up finishing the whole knife in a nashiji/scotchbrite satin 😃

@@BetweenTwoForks cool thank you, I just ordered the leaf spring 240 from cktg, they have the "improved" version with the new handle in stock, also got the finishing service. So start at like 220 grit with water and work up in like what, 400/800/1000 until I'm satisfied with how it looks? Lol sorry never tried to do something like this just trying to get as much info as possible

@@milleradam98 hey, no apologies needed. I get how it goes. There isn't a ton of info out there. The progression is up to you on how high you want to go. There are different hand dancing techniques. They will vary in direction, as well as trying to get a nicer finish by doing single direction sanding. I'd go up to 400 to 600 grit and see how you like the look. Should be a pretty good satin finish. Between grits, make sure the sanding mark from the previous grit is no longer visible before progressing. Hope this helps!!

Why, oh why, would anyone give Dao Vua a hard time? The leaps they've made, especially given the short time they've been in production, are quite impressive where I sit. You can absolutely pay more and get less. I was watching a video recently on another knife from a company who will not be named... but their initials are C.O.Olina... and they were screwing the scales on a $120 cleaver on with brass screws. Philips heads no less, I'm sure that's comfy when you're trying to dispatch a ribeye roast. And the best was, it wasn't even sharpened. So yeah, Dao Vua might need a blade polish when they get home after a trip from Viet Nam... not the worst thing ever. If I flew from MO to Viet Nam, I'd need a shower and a nap before I hit the town too.

Honestly, I am not sure what their beef us. But with all else, there are always purists out there that thinks only certain knives within a particular spec is considered good. Brother, I love that analogy lol. I shared it with my wife and we both got a kick out of it 😂🙏

Thank you very much for your support! If you want a great knife, the shibazi is well within your budget and is a GREAT knife. I have one and still need to review it but from my first look at it, it is amazing. With the additional money, you can grab one/two whetstones to upkeep the knife.
