    What knife would you recommend (questionnaire)?

    Ok I've been taking on board all the suggestions here. Question now is in terms of sharpening how does B2 SS clad compare with R2 SG2 stainless? My reasoning is, if B2 SS Clad is easier to sharpen and both B2 and R2 keep a good edge for weeks then I might go for the one that's easier to...

    What knife would you recommend (questionnaire)?

    Very nice that's great to know, I can live with both of those. I have started out with a beginner's knife a Tanaka b2 180mm KU and just finished oiling the wooden handle. I've used it once and it already shines over my Globals which were sharpened on 3000 grit a week ago. Can't believe it. If...

    Great advice there Nemo your comment about 3 week retentionfor both B2 and R2 for me makes a lot of sense. I'm not working the knives hours a day. I'm torn between B2 SS Clad and R2.

    Same Rockwell Hardness - why is one knife harder to sharpen than another?

    VG10 stainless steel vs white 2 carbon steel. The stainless steels with vanadium and chromium are the main difference and it seems that these elements make it harder to sharpen. I know with vanadium tools, they have a very hard grittiness to them as does tungsten. At a guess they make stainless...
