  • Before I go ahead and order this niwaki knife can anyone recommend anything better, cheaper etc etc.

    It will be for chopping vegetables only

  • I haven't used their kitchen stuff but if it's anything like their gardening tools it'll certainly do the job.

    Can't recommend anything in that style at a cheaper price but would say in the long term you might prefer a knife that isn't stainless steel.

    On the off chance you're in central London any time soon, it's definitely worth calling in at Kataba in covent garden/TCR - more money but a good place to go and try holding a few knives.

  • What’s the score with stainless? I’ve been using a cleaver for years but I think the quality of the steel is pretty poor (it was £10) it just doesn’t hold its sharpness and gets bumps on the blade quite easily.
