Okey, I have never seen these on the website, so my first look at them was when Yangdu put up the best buys earlier today. I have instantly fallen in love with this small, "cute" knife.
So to feed my present infatuation, I was hoping if those who have been lucky enough to get one could (a) post some pics, and (b) give me some reviews on how it handles. I know 9" isn't much for chopping, but what have you used it for? what's worked? what hasn't? Either way, 9"and 6 ounces.... $48.... if i had been 2 minutes slower forum checking i'd have it
Also, this is more for someone like Yangdu or someone more closely associated with HI... but why is the GBC not in production? The website only lists 18"and 21" for the Chitlangi on the shop site... its not even on the main HI site (unless i missed it)
And lastly, again for Yangdu or someone close to HI... is it possible to request a length or style of knife not on the HI website/shop site? For instance, if i were to request a GBC as was just sold (9", 6 ounce GBC), what would the time frame and cost be?
