Worth buying several

I bought one for myself. I then quickly bought another because I didn't want to not have a backup before the price doubled. I bought one for a friend, had two other friends buy based on my recommendation, and I just got another. The blades are very thin and also can get very sharp. His hammering and shaping leading into the blade is special. All that said, they are also challengingly reactive, but so worth the discipline. I don't recommend Shindo-san's original wood handle and plastic ferrule. The steel is well worth the price of a nice handle. I'll be getting his nakiri and 210 gyuto in time.

Fantastic Service

I can't say enough about the service I received from tokushuknife.com. I asked to have a knife I purchased finished sharpened without a handle on it. My questions were answered almost immediately and the finished product was done as requested at no extra charge!!! Fantastic. Will purchase from again!!!
