Masahiro 1500x waterstone

Masahiro Shiageto 18cm L x 17mm T Fine Grit 1500 waterstone My first sharpening stone, bought from JCK (Japanese Chef's Knife), market as a Shiageto but 1500x grit is more of fine cutting stone instead of a finishing stone. Actually quite small compared to my current fleet of sharpening stones and is quite soft, comes with nice tall rubber feet.

Messermeister 10-slot garnishing knife roll Last one on the shelf from Cut It Out ($$$), about $35 for a 10 -slot garnishing roll. Its successor might be an Archer 15-piece woodworking chisel roll for $23.

Zwilling JA Henkels Four Star 8" Cook's knife- Old Faithful

Zwilling JA Henkels Four Star 8" Cook's knife Not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but still my favourite in terms of weight, balance and feel. But off par in so many ways. Haven't used it since my sharp gyutos arrived on the scene, get a rebirth this X'mas.
