Just to give you guys some heads up.
I am going to start offering these as my ready-made knives, and do S grind only as custom orders. Unfortunately, S grind takes me 50-60% more time to grind and hand-finish a blade and it is hard for me to stay competitive.
There will be 2-3 variants, ranging from thin, medium, heavy (heavy duty prep knife, similar to Kato) convex. Asymmetric convex will be offered with wa handle only.
These will be good all around knives, with excellent HT (sharpness, sharpen-ability, edge retention and edge stability). I am going to offer these in 52100, A2, and AEB-L. Target hardness 62-63RC. These knives will be offered with leather and wooden sayas. Blades will be hand finished.
Thanks,
Marko
