So, there was a surprise waiting in the mail today. I haven’t actually had time to cut anything yet, but nevertheless it’s really interesting to see how different it is to my 210 Mab and 180 Morihei. Big thanks to Carl for letting me borrow it! I’ll be back with a few thoughts when I’ve had...

Love it! I’m in whichever option we end up with.

Seems to me one should get in before they’ve all reached Jiro-rates. Joking aside though, I’m not so sure about inconsistencies? No doubt they’ve evolved a lot batch to batch, but it seems to me from reading on here that they are more or less consistent within batches. Also, haven’t most been...
