本鍛錬 堺豊隆作​


Feels like SKD or an aogami super, I have no idea what steel it is. Stainless cladding. Heavily alloyed, slow to rust, tiny rust spots appear and immediate very faint dull gray patina. Balance point at where bolster meets blade. Tiny inclusion or rust mark on the right side across the lamination line on steel and cladding. Sharpens very toothy and alloyed, can catch hair so it's a good heat treat. Stainless cladding is very grabby on stones in a coarse not pleasant way. Heel is ground thinner than rest of knife. I've thinned it, so the rest of the blade cuts a bit closer to how the choil looks. Patina on the core in the handle. Stray scratches on blade face. Very right hand grind

I've done some direct to seller messages for knives in the past and it could be a pain when they didn't actually want it. I would wait a day to a couple days for them to reply, or think of they wanted it, so usually I just straight post stuff on bst to reach a wider audience, especially for my weirder stuff
