Does anyone know where I can find a nice vendor for mono wa handles online? D-shape or Octagonal is best. I really like the look of mono wood handles on KU knives, like the picture below; I'm planning to get one for my Munetoshi. I know Hitohira and its partnering vendors sell some but...

I recently got a Tanaka Kyuzo Blue 1, the sharpness OOTB was less than ideal so I brought it to my Shapton 2k. The same stone I've used to get all my previous knives sharp enough to slice paper towels, including a Kaeru SLD and a Swedish stainless petty. As a beginner 1 year into this, I know...
