Yoshihiro Hongasumi Blue Steel Yanagi knives are expertly crafted from High Carbon Blue Steel #2, with a hardness of 63-64 HRC on the Rockwell scale. This Hongasumi Yanagi offers superior edge retention and the ability to take on a finer edge compared to the Kasumi Yanagi made from White Steel #2, making it an excellent choice for intermediate-level chefs. This knife comes ready to use out of the box and is 100% handcrafted in Japan. Unlike mass-produced alternatives, each knife is meticulously made by skilled artisans to ensure premium quality and performance.

The Yanagi is a long slicing knife designed specifically to cut thin slices of fish for sushi and sashimi. The elegance of its thin blade allows for long, uninterrupted strokes that preserve the integrity and freshness of the fish, a feature that sets the Yanagi apart from other knives. As one of the most essential knives in traditional Japanese cuisine, the Yanagi is indispensable in the repertoire of chefs who value precision and craftsmanship. Even the simplest tasks are elevated with a handcrafted knife that is as beautiful as it is functional.

Our Yoshihiro Hongasumi knives are crafted with exceptional skill by our master artisans to deliver high-quality performance and craftsmanship. Blue Steel #2 is forged with iron to create beautiful mist patterns that demonstrate the refined forging and polishing techniques of our artisans. The traditional single-edged grind adds to the precision and sharpness of the blade, ensuring clean, smooth cuts every time.

Each Yoshihiro Hongasumi knife is complemented with a traditional Japanese-style handcrafted Shitan Rosewood handle affixed with an Ebony bolster, providing an excellent balance and grip. A protective wooden Saya is included, which not only keeps the blade safe but is also easy to clean and resistant to stains and odors.

Care Instructions: Although traditional Japanese carbon steel knives are not stainless, with proper care, they will provide years of enjoyment. Keep your knife dry between uses and apply Tsubaki Oil (included) before storage to maintain the blade's condition. For sharpening and honing, use premium quality Japanese water stones to preserve and maintain the high-quality steel.

This knife is a perfect blend of beauty and function, crafted to perform and elevate every task in the kitchen.

The best personal finance book I’ve ever read.
Format: Hardcover
Most finance books focus on the mechanics—budgets, tax strategies, portfolio construction, and the endless parade of acronyms and formulas. Those things matter, of course. But they miss the real issue. Money problems are rarely mechanical. They’re behavioral. That’s where The Psychology of Money stands apart. Housel goes straight to the heart of the matter: how people think about money, how emotions shape financial decisions, and why intelligent people still make poor choices with their finances. The book doesn’t lecture you with formulas. It speaks to you. It speaks to your brain—the quiet assumptions you carry about wealth, success, security, and risk. It forces you to confront the uncomfortable reality that managing money well is far more about temperament than intelligence. One chapter that especially stood out to me is “The Seduction of Pessimism.” Housel explains why pessimism often sounds smarter than optimism. Doom and gloom feel analytical and sophisticated, while optimism can sound naive. But over long stretches of time—especially in markets and economic progress—optimism tends to be far closer to reality. It’s a beautifully written chapter and an important reminder for anyone who spends time around financial news or market commentary. What makes this book exceptional is its clarity and humanity. Housel understands that money isn’t just math—it’s tied to ego, fear, status, insecurity, and hope. And until you understand those forces, no spreadsheet or strategy will save you. If you read only one book about money, make it this one.

Great book
Format: Paperback
"The Psychology of Money" by Morgan Housel is a thought-provoking book that explores the complex relationship between money, greed, and happiness. Housel challenges conventional notions about wealth, arguing that it's not just about smart decisions, but also about behavior and psychology ¹. The book is divided into 20 short chapters, each tackling a different aspect of money psychology. Housel uses engaging storytelling and real-life examples to illustrate his points, making the book an enjoyable read. One of the key takeaways from the book is the importance of understanding your own values and priorities when it comes to money. Housel argues that money is a reflection of our values, and that our financial decisions should align with what's truly important to us ². The book also delves into the power of compounding, highlighting the benefits of long-term thinking and patient investing. Housel emphasizes that getting wealthy slowly is often a more sustainable and reliable approach than seeking overnight success ². Other notable themes in the book include the role of luck in financial outcomes, the dangers of complexity in financial decision-making, and the impact of stories and narratives on our financial behaviors ². Overall, "The Psychology of Money" is a insightful and accessible book that offers valuable lessons for anyone looking to improve their relationship with money. As one reviewer noted, "This book is the book I wish I had read when I was young" ¹. *Key Takeaways:* - *Money as a Reflection of Values*: Understand your own values and priorities when it comes to money. - *The Power of Compounding*: Long-term thinking and patient investing can lead to significant financial gains. - *The Role of Luck*: Recognize the influence of chance and unforeseen circumstances on financial outcomes. - *Simplicity over Complexity*: Avoid complex financial decisions and focus on simplicity and clarity. - *The Impact of Stories*: Be aware of how narratives and stories shape your financial behaviors and decisions.

So Adorable! Thicker Paper and Fun to Color!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
The Coco Wyo team has done it again! Another super cute coloring book filled with the cutest characters! The paper is thicker than in previous Coco books, yay! but if you’re using markers you will still want to put paper behind the page you are coloring. Ink bleed through still happens but not as much. Shading: If you want to add shadows on top of the marker areas, the Prismacolor premier soft core colored pencils work beautifully, but be sure to let the paper dry completely first. Update Review Regarding Marker Blending: With the thicker paper you can get away with many rounds of normal blending techniques with both alcohol markers. See the photo of mine with the shooting star. That page has so many layers of marker blending that I lost count, haha and the paper is still in tact! Yay! Creating Highlights: I use Sakura gelly roll pens as well as acrylic paint pens for highlights with no issues. Pro tip: If you’re using gelly roll pens, be sure they are bold 10. That will fit the scale of the art on the page and it won’t get clogged during use. Coloring Tools: I’ve tried using: Copic alcohol markers Tombow water based markers Ohuhu alcohol markers Kingart water based markers Kagito alcohol markers Prismacolor Premier Soft Core colored pencils Sakura GellyRoll Moonlight Bold 10 Pens Shuttleart Acrylic paint pens Everything has worked beautifully and I've been able to successfully achieve nice shading and blending. Note: All of the coloring tools I’ve mentioned above can be found and purchased right here on Amazon. I own lots of Coco books and love coloring in them. Their illustration style is calm and friendly, making coloring in them a relaxing and enjoyable experience. There were only a few pages in this book that I would not find enjoyable to color such as the holiday themed pages. I wish they wouldn't always put holiday themed pages in non-holiday books, but they can easily be removed if you want and this book really only had a few, so still worth purchasing in my opinion. You can tell much thought and care went into creating illustrations that would be fun to color while also helping to reduce stress, which is one of the things we all in the coloring community love about coloring right?! Coloring in Coco books is such a fantastic way to reduce stress and their designs are top notch. A highly recommended coloring book for all ages! I hope you found this review helpful!
