I have one on order from him already. I've been buggin the crap out of Devin because I can't wait to get it! ...I'm not being very patient...

Now we don't have to go through "he who shall not be named" to get an ITK!

Culinary Classics can make one in a tall size for you (custom jacket), but they tend to run on the expensive side. With that said though, I have few coats from them and they're among the best I have.

I'm surprised no one mentioned Keen yet? I have very flat feet, and wearing clogs are incredibly uncomfortable for me. Keen are very flat shoes, and combined with gel inserts my feet never hurt.

Sorry for the confusion, my masamoto is a 300mm yanagi. Interested?

Would you be interested in a masamoto KS?

Tempting... So tempting...

I can't wait to see that. You know what the funny thing would be if you backhanded them the way they backhanded you. Something along the lines of "Unlike this imitation stone that you can buy cheaper with free shipping and no customs fees..." It would be funny, but then you'd be no better...

Congrats Hoss!

I would say you can tell based on the patina, however the color of the patina has more to do with what your cutting than the steel. I'd assume though if you literally cut the same food, handled the knives exactly the same, removed all variables... then the two steels would patina differently...

So Maxim, if they don't have your stones what do they have?
