MAC Knife is having their first annual black friday sale. They are some of the top rated knives in the world and used by many world class chefs. These are the best prices I've seen for many of their products.
- Hand made in Japan
- Made from rust-resistant Molybdenum High-Carbon cutlery steel
- Blades are hand-ground, and hand-sharpened on water-cooled stones to optimize the quality of the finished blade
- The steel has optimal hardness between 57º and 61º Rockwell C and is still easy to re-sharpen.

It's normally at 145 ish and 130 is the lowest I've seen it at awhile. The deal with the paring and and the mth80 on the posters link is pretty great though.
It's a great highly reviewed knife. I have one but its more brittle than a german knife . An acquaintance careless flung it into the sink and the tip bent. But it keeps its edge for a long time, but I try to baby mines after the incident. I use it mainly to chop vegetables and slice boneless meat. It's also fairly light. I use a german knife for heavier duty task.
The nakiri is cheaper on overstock.

Is that true?
Here's are some tips:
-Buy a MAC knife (they're excellent knives)
-Buy a "beater knife" or two. Search "Victorinox" on Amazon.
-Use that cheap, yet pretty decent "beater knife" for anything with bones or might be frozen
-Use your MAC knife for everything else
-Get a honing rod and/or a leather strop to maintain your razor edge (doesn't sharpen it, but it will keep it performing at its peak for longer)
-Use a wood cutting board. Edge won't last long cutting on plastic or glass *shudders*.
-Do not put it (or any knife) in the dishwasher. Ever.
-Keep it in a knife block or buy some sort of cover. If you put it in a drawer bouncing around with other utensils, it will dull very fast.
Enjoy!

Thanks, that's some good info!
Some sharpening nerds might want to take this blade to 5000 grit but that seems like overkill for a home knife. I do my home knives at 2000 but that's just because I got a stupid good deal on it vs the Shapton Pro 1000 that I was planning to buy.
