Puerh Throwing Knife

[ambrose]

Well once again I was looking for a great puerh knife as I found mine to dull for some of my cakes. I was looking all over the net and nothing much caught my eye as good. You see I am one who breaks off chunks for every pot. Long story short I was cleaning up and found an old cheap throwing knife Ive had since I was 16. I was so happy to see it and in an instant thought of man that would be a perfect knife for puerh nice and pointy yet the sides are not sharp. It was dirty and had some rust spots so I took it to my buffer and polished them clear. I just wanted to share it with you guys. It works nothing short of amazing. cake is 07 Xiaguan "FT" #4

The ambrose puerh tea knife has poked enough holes in me, I'd be scared to use that one!

Very cool I didnt realize you got your hands on one of those. Neh nothing to fear as long as you're careful.

Tuo's and iron cakes will be the death of me.

For tuos I would recommend a pick of some sort vice a knife. Does not have to be anything fancy; an ice pick will do very nicely. For iron cakes, you just need to be very careful. I personally find that I need a bit more of a knife for the iron cakes and typically use an old chicago cutlery paring knife for working on an iron cake.

I use a Kershaw Silver Spur II for tuochas, bricks and cakes. It's blade is narrow and it has a sharp edge and a blunt false edge.

Be careful with sharp objects and tuochas or you my be singing that sad song - 'Blood on the Tuocha.

Im glad I found this throwing knife it works very well and has dull sides with a nice point. I bet that kershaw is nice

It's rather nice to recycle old objects into useful teaware! I have reused an old trivet, which I now use to rest my tetsubin on when it's off the heat. There is also a pretty flowerpot (a wide one) that I use for my chaxi (waste water bowl)!
