The World's Biggest Japanese Knife Collection (Probably)

[@DeanChr]

Nolan, finally catching up on these videos! Thanks for the shout out, glad you're digging the Kiwi mini-cleaver! My son watched the video with me tonight when he was supposed to be in bed and was very excited to see your collection :)

I also collect Japanese knives. Think I have over 300 now, and I have been trying to get them all organized on computer. Want to sell some! I have given away many, also "sold" a lot for like 15 cents, to friends and family. Avoid any bad luck that way. I also like my Henckels knives, working on a Zwilling chef knife now. Making new handle, then will sharpen after all that work is done. I am lucky, there are 2 big Japanese 2nd hand shops near here, and I buy my knives there. New deba for $20? Nice old usuba for $10? Love it.

I could watch Nolan talk knives all day long.

Great collection! All these thin edges being so close to steel gives me anxiety. One touch and it could chip 😅

[@jordanmarston4229]

[@androidcell3933]

[@avargs3505]

The one at 11:00 looks like a single blade strait razor for a giant

[@ANOMALY_TIFF]

What’s a shark tooth knife?

[@KnifewearKnives]

Its a Shibata Tinker knife!

[@dalechapman1633]

Pins? Did you say -pins? When will they be available?

[@KnifewearKnives]

In the next few months, we'll announce on our mailing list and social media!

[@dadofmma]

I am jealous, I work my ass off to save up for a 50-dollar chef's knife, I have 3 kids so I am unable to afford kitchen cutlery like I enjoy as a chef. I wish you were my boy lol so you could gift me a chefs knife.

[@KnifewearKnives]

We all wish Nolan was our family member, he gives great gifts

[@chrisnormandeau6101]

Wait, I thought microfiber was supposed to be good to use on knives to minimize risk of scratching? I use a soft sponge to clean and a microfiber cloth to dry… am I doing it wrong?

[@kyo4250]

Maybe its something like: you get shit stuck in microfiber cloth and it can then scratch knife. I have 33cm Chef knife thats mirror polish and only wash it with hand and single use paper cloths and its not getting scratched.

[@chrisnormandeau6101]

@@kyo4250 oh jeepers, 330mm of mirror? I’d be washing it with unicorn hair and wishes

[@KnifewearKnives]

On super nice polishes, it can create micro scratches that gradually fog up the nice finish. One most knives, totally fine!
