The Bears' Den--Shirogorov Showcase

I don't mean to go all wannabe mod here--as I'm neither--but the attention of the actual BF mods isn't something I'd care to see encouraged by engaging in sales talk or mentioning non-BF-supporting dealers, which includes all those named in the last few posts. The only company which is a BF supporting dealer for Shiro's is Knifecenter--also only one of two dealers worldwide authorized by Shirogorov Brothers Workshop to sell to North America. There is one authorized dealer in Russia--not the one mentioned in Post #3082 (which also stupidly expensive)--and the Workshop itself, neither of which will sell/ship to addresses here.

For my part, my Shiros mostly came from the Exchange--one from WTB and the rest from WTS--and one in a private deal with a member here. Vladimir_K is a BF supporting private dealer/Russian re-seller who occasionally has listings on the Exchange. Three of my knives were sourced through Vlad. You can find his email address with a search here, and write to him with what you're looking for.

 

Just lay the cord on a cutting board or wood block and press down on it with a sharp knife, which I assume you have. It'll snap through it easily.

 

I don't believe there's a catalogue, per se, but one can access the Workshop's website at shirogorov dot com and read it rather well with the help of Google Translate. The website of Shiro's authorized, but non-BF-supporting California dealer gives a pretty good overview of knives both available and sold-out.
