So I've been on the fence about keeping this knife. I love cutting with it, I love the size and height, and I love the way it feels in my hand.
The thought of refinishing this knife next time it needs thinning fills me with dread. I hate the sandpaper process. I just let a Kato go for the same reason. This is the last knife I have with the type of blade face that I can't just thin, put a nice stone finish on and have it look good.
I think this is the best iPhone choil shot I have ever managed.
The last pic shows a slight san mai settling bend to one side. It is very slight and does not affect cutting.
The saya is friction fit, homemade of basswood.
$275 shipped conus
If you are interested in either of the stones I have up combined prices can be knocked down. Partial trades for 210mm deba considered.
I will be out of town from today until 7/15, I can ship then.
