Nice!!!

But, and I mean this literally, you're going to get an ass whoopin' if pics of the new toy aren't up within minutes of getting it. I don't want to have to wait more than an hour. Start taking a camera to work for gawd's sake. :)

[chefjohn]

It isnt done yet! I dont think it is going to make it till next monday ?

[watercrawl]

I don't care when it comes in by gawd. Minutes, not hours. :)

[chefjohn]

[Octaveman]

Very nice, John. Which wa-g do you like the best?

[chefjohn]

it is a toss up I love them both! I have tried adams 240 kikiuchi and think I have them in the right order the susin is light and nimble and the 270 is the work horse!

[watercrawl]

I couldn't pick between the two either. Both great knives.

I sure like the looks of the Kikuichi. I just looked at their catalog in pdf. Is it from their Ginsan line?
