The overuse/incorrect use of "W1" and "W2" here on the BST forum...
yeah I get you mean white #1 and white #2
but W1 and W2 are actual different steel grades
maybe I'm over sensitive but I feel like I'm seeing this abuse more and more
I’d like to think its less abuse, but just more people are being interested home cooking and nice cutlery… and being a little overconfident with some internet research. I think fairly recently realized they were different when a maker listed w2 and white paper 2 separately in their website so i am guilty of this too.
