since two months I enjoy my blue paper steel (grade 2) in the pro environment where I work as line cook.
disadvantage is having it to keep dry, to avoid rust spots.
what I have noticed is that the metal does seem to react with say, the veggies I am cutting.
as in discolouring...
story goes, knife has to develop a patina first and then things should improve.
do others also have this experience and is there a way around it.
I'd hate to take this knife home and swap for my wusthof classic ikon, although thats a nice knife too but not as sharp as my current knife.
