I'm still collecting my thoughts and shooting video for an in-depth review, but here are some quick specs and info, for those (like me) who will be annoyed if I don't include them:
Overall Length: 410mm
Blade: 270mm (exactly)
Handle (inc. bolster): 140mm
Blade height @heel: 62mm
Spine thickness above heel: 3mm
Spine thickness @midway: 2.5mm
Spine thickness @tip: 1mm
Weight: unknown, I don't have a gram scale (but it's not light)
The design was the product of a lot of emails between myself and Michael and also influenced by the feedback from his last pass-around. The profile includes 2/4 length flat working section, 1/4 length belly/ transitional section, 1/4 length flat "sweet spot" @tip.
