Thanks for the review Tom, the Reppu line from Tojiro is the thinnest and lightest new kitchen knife to hit the market in awhie. They are like a wa handle Takamura
Could not be more pleased. Very light and the edge is holding up great. Amazing knife.
Stoked to hear you're enjoying your first Japanese knife. Welcome to the club!
Several years ago u walked by District Cutlery and admired the shop. This most recent visit to Union Market, i decided to stop in and buy a knife. I wasnt 100% sure that i would purchase one but after looking over the selection and talking to one of the employees, i decided to purchase my first japense knife. I could not be happier. The staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. I felt comfortable the whole time and they didn't pressure me. U am very hapoy with my ourchase and will be back soon!
