Just picked up this parer from another forum member. Cleaned up the handle and put a fresh edge on it and I'm really impressed. Arrived with a few small chips in the edge and felt quite slick on the stones making me think the steel is quite hard, unsure of what the steel is though (guess was S30v?). It's waifishly thin, and has taken a scary edge (5k SS then strop), going to stay with the sister this weekend and she likes to use a parer for everything so will take it along to get her expert opinion. Only worry is if she likes it I might end up losing it
Apologetically poor iPhone pic, I blame the mirror finish for being hard to photo....
Will give an update when I've had a chance to use it for a while, but first impressions are great, nice weight in the hand, comfortable blade shape and nice length.
