JAPAN Kitchen Knife Tour 2023 Blog | Kitchen Tools



My third trip to Japan, and one of the most intense trips of my life. I got to meet legendary Japanese smiths, sharpeners and brands in just six short days. A big thank you to Bonsai Boys Trading for hiring me to be their Japanese Kitchen Knife facilitator.

  1. Great video, Franki! It was a fun tour.
    That was not the meme I was expecting so I had a good chuckle over it (and I'm so thankful you didn't put the Mariko meme in there). The plant, btw, is a pink spider lily and I've had a bidet/toilet in my home for more than 20 years. I don't understand why it hasn't caught on in North America but I'll never own a toilet that isn't equipped that way. Hose your rear and stop the smear!
