Tidy site, and the kind of thing I'd use. However, I suspect it's only going to appeal to people more like us, rather than anyone who doesn't know why a konosuke hd is a cool thing. I'd suggest spending some time on a page for "Why you want to buy these kinds of knives".
Think of it as the knives equiv. to http://bellroy.com/slim-your-wallet
I appreciate that feedback and will definitely work on a page for this purpose. Great idea. It's one of those things where it's so clear to me that it's hard to lay it out as barebones to people that don't yet get it.

The what you want to get across is the effortlessness of cutting with a really sharp knife made with VG10 or similar Japanese carbon steel, vs what you're going to get out of a more traditional German or French knife with something like X50CrMoV15 or similar stainless.
A good video explaining what's going on with the differences between knives would probably help a lot.
That said, I cook basically every night, and I've got some toys I suspect you'd enjoy. Good luck with it!
Good for you! Thanks for the luck.
