I hadn’t really enjoyed the Takeshi Saji gyuto out of the box, it felt hard work to cut through hard veg. So I put it through the full set of Horl discs including their latest Kagami whetstone.
Complete transformation in how the knife feels. No flaring of strips of onion when making a fine dice, cutting potatoes into a dice the batons didn’t squirm around at all.
I totally understand that patience and time to practice with a conventional set of stones will possibly get even better results, but I lack patience or the time to invest in learning another skill.
