This is exactly the issue I have w/ my 270 - too flat. I do have a couple of spots that accordion that I've tried to get out but couldn't. That was a while ago, and since I've learned more maybe I could do better now. But even if I got the accordion/over grind issues resolved, I still wouldn't use the knife because it's too flat and not fun to use. I even raised the tip slightly in about the last 1/3 of the blade which made it better, but the heel should really be raised slightly too.... the main problem is that the knife is just too flat. from pics of other Moritakas i've seen, this seems to be a common thing. if he made the knives have a bit more curve, i think the issue with holes in the edge would be much better, as most Japanese knives have holes in the edge, but to a much lesser degree. otherwise, my impressions are similar to Tinh's...
Will be handing this off to Notaskinnychef tonight, I am still beside myself with how light this knife is!
