If I can’t save them, I break them. In this case today I broke all of them. Hot water didn’t work and they were burnt in and glued so good.What do you do with all the stock handles you replace?

Magnolia handles are basic handles. I personally think that it don’t feel right to have them on nice knives. Plus they don’t feel good on hands in due time.Sorry for asking again.
What is the problem with magnolia handles?
Tadokoro’s is very elegant, how do you like it so far?
With 1 time use so far. I really like it. I guess im just scared to scratch up the mirror finish. Soon i’ll be playing with it more at work.Tadokoro’s is very elegant, how do you like it so far?
That’s cool—I gotta stop buying gyutos and get my first EDC.
Nah, don't stop buying Gyuto's. Buy leather sheaths and carry them every dayThat’s cool—I gotta stop buying gyutos and get my first EDC.
Been eyeing an EDC for the past few years, it would be useful. TBH, not a fan of leather sheaths.Nah, don't stop buying Gyuto's. Buy leather sheaths and carry them every dayTHAT'S COOL!
But, tbh those little blades are very useful for many things every day. It's cool to have something sharp in your pants (I mean, something sharp out of steel of course!)
