25% off high quality knives is almost unheard of, but Knife Toronto has such a promo going until the end of this week. they're celebrating their 16th anniversary with 25% discounts on all their knives, all their sharpening gear, 25% off all their cookware and cutting boards and then 'huge' discounts on a bunch of their coffee products too.

I just ordered two cleavers, both are from Hatsukokoro Sentan and made of White #2 steel that's clad in SS. the 200mm has a Kurouchi finish while the 170mm has a Migaki finish. and a few other bits...a hasegawa cutting matt, some tongs and fish tweezers. my wife finds that fish tweezers are excellent for nipping the tips off garlic cloves so they can be easily peeled. barely crushing them does that too, but she insists garlic tastes the best if the cloves haven't been ruptured and go through a garlic press. she doesn't much care for minced garlic... though I did buy a Gracula garlic press, which they say minces the clove, but honestly, it almost comes out a paste, LoL!!!
sorry if any of that are run on sentences.

Sixteen years of cooking. Sixteen years of sharpening. Sixteen years of plating. Sixteen years of friendships. A few years of brewing. What started as that microscopic specialty shop on the second floor on Queen West, has grown into something we’re truly proud of. A community of cooks...
