First stop on a day-trip to New York this weekend: Korin Trading Company. The Knife Master was in the house and we had some steel in need of sharpening.
The shop was under construction so I’m not sure I got the full desired effect. Nonetheless, the dishes and flatware on offer in the front of the shop were clearly just teasers to prepare us for the beauty of the Japanese blades on display in Korin’s showcases. The staff displayed a level of customer service commensurate to the quality of their goods, which is to say very fine. One could spend a ton of money here if judgment were put on hold. I’m coming back when I hit the lottery….
