    As well as links to related videos that cover a specific topic like making liners, mosaic pins or wood stabilization!

      I loved watching this, but I noticed a small issue. The heel of the blade has a ricasso in your version, and this is an issue because you can't use the heel to pare if it isn't sharp. The technique of using a Nakiri Bocho is different than a French knife tradition. A French knife can have a ricasso because there is a separate knife that only does paring.

    Making knives has always been a dream hobby of mine, the more I watch though the more I've come to the realization that I'd never have the creativity to think up half of these things, or have the payroll or accommodations to get even half the kit to do these kind of projects.

    One benefit to the Nakiri's shape is that as one sharpens it over time the length stays the same. A differentially hardened edge gets in the way of this benefit by leaving half the blade (in this case) unhardened.

    Hehehe, i saw the original Nakiri video as well, around 2 years ago or so (as i also watched the chef's knife one similar to it), and once more after that, to refresh my memory! 😛, and i was initially swearing YT in my head for suggesting it to me again like half hour ago! 😂
    But i was pretty sure the OG had a darker shade on the handle and some sort of red in it as well, so i had to click and see what this was all about! And boy, i dont regret any of those 22 minutes!
    Maybe someday i gather enough "courage" to somehow make one of my own, since i find nakiris to be one of the most suitable types of knives in any kitchen for all the daily tasks and yours are some of the most iconic looking ones i can think of! And i came across quite a few models in my searches! 🙂
    Thanks a lot for yet another treat! 🙏

    • @stevewebber707
      @stevewebber707 3 года назад +1

      I was going to ask much the same.
      I am not a fan of such bolsters on fine cutlery. And on a nakiri, which is designed for chopping, maintaining the edge to not have a cutting gap with the bolster hitting the cutting board, is dealing with unneeded problems.
      Especially considering the straight blade profile, I could see that bolster creating problems very quickly.
      I have occasionally seen similar knives with larger bolsters, but I don't think I've ever seen one where the bolster extends to the blade like this.

    The main characteristic of a nakiri is the thinness of the blade. Japanese nakiri knife makers put a lot of efforts into forging very thin blades. Your work, while very nice, is not a nakiri because it probably lacks the extra penetrating ability of an extremely thin blade. When you use a nakiri, you have the impression that the knife just falls through the vegetables, you almost don't feel anything when it is cutting. Plus the nakiri has a symetrical grind.
    In conclusion, nice work, but not a nakiri.
