Buying a Japanese nakiri

Do you find you have the same go-to kitchen knife out of those? I always end up using the same one or two knives.

I'd like to know what the deal is with the pocket knife on it's own in the red frame, is that a particularly sentimental/badass one?

Jesus that Gyuto knife cost more than my whole Henckels knife block! :bow:

I thought I would have the same go to, but to be honest I use them all. Sometimes it's just because ones raw meat and the other veg, but other times it's because I'm slicing one thing, chopping something else, and carving pips out of something else so I'll go through the 4 front knives most dinners. The Gyuto was previously my go to till I got the set. Now it's my "if I want to cut something very very thinly" knife. Or special occasions, it's very versatile.

I lost a pocketknife that was gifted to me by my brother in law in Canada, less than 2 weeks after getting back from Canada. Said knife was a limited edition benchmade mini-griptilian, think it equated to about $750 nz dollars or about £300 or £350...

It pains me greatly, and I'm currently saving up money from selling stock photography to buy a replacement. Won't have the same production number but it'll do!

As to Red framed knife, it's a Fallkniven GP pocket knife. Quite badass, but very sentimental. It was bought when we found out I was going to be a father. The intention is to give it to my son when he turns 18,or some other responsible adulthood stage.

Other knives in the collection are for starting different jobs, moving to NZ, buying house, college, uni, holidays and birthdays. There's a couple that have no real memory attached to them which I find is a shame but they're nice enough :)
