Knife sharpening lessons from Dave?
Hahaha.
Hahaha.
It's a Forschner.
She had a budget of $150. I'm going out on a limb here, but I'm not sure you can get an ebony handle and saya for $150, let alone a knife to go with them!Ah. You know what, I was thinking that this thread was for you... but given everything else ... man, but the timing is so perfect! I mean, it HAS to be, right? Or?
Alright, assuming that wasn't you, I'll go with a custom ashi from JKI.

I don't know I'll just throw out..............carter?
Time for another hint. And cute baby knife nut in training.
That's no fun! You even get a short peak at the profile. And the thing thats stumping you all should be the giveaway for some of you.I've got an idea for a hint. You could tell us what it is!
Konosuke honyaki/HD gyuto with ebony (black lacquer?) and mirror polish?
k.
ooo Very close.
Here it is!
:bliss::bliss::bliss:
It's a Shigefusa 240mm Kitaeji Gyuto!
It used to belong to Scott(aka SaltyDog), and now it has a new life at my job. The handle and saya are coated in the black textured stuff that Salty puts on all his work knives. Not sure many other people can claim that as an MO, someone shoulda picked up on that! This thing cuts like a DREAM, and has been great to me all week. I've been on a shige-moon for a week now.
Now I know what to do with the Red Mallee burl I've had acclimating on my shelf for a few months.:happy1:
Best.
Surprise.
Ever.
The guy who won was AndrewH! Hooray for both of us!
