Now that is a statement I can identify with.

I don't care what you use it for, it looks like a terrific knife. Congratulations.

Happy mincing!

Interesting tip for a Santoku. You can do some traditional veg carving with it. Google Mukimono, John :)

"In Japan, mukimono (剥き物) is the traditional art of food carving that helps promote national identity through food preparation, garnishment, and designs. It was the great Chinese poet Li Po that mentioned in one of his works that during the reign of Emperor Zhong Zong, the Japanese please the gods through carving mythical shapes and objects on every battle triumphs and conquests. However, the art only became popular in Japan during it’s final traditional era – the Edo period from 1603 to 1867."
