Rehandled my Wakui with one of @KasumiJLA ’s lovely pieces and I couldn’t be happier. The pheasant wood feels incredibly warm and lively and I feel the wood grain complements the damascus nicely. Couldn’t recommend his work more and can't wait to commission another (if he hasn't been traumatized by how difficult I am).

Very nice knife from Erick Gullikson. It took the number one spot for best cutters that I own. I thought I wasn’t a fan of the tall gyutos but I guess I was wrong. I also really dig the 2 stage tip.

Got a pair of new needle rasps today to replace my cheapo Amazon ones. These feel really nice

 

[Cliff]

What are those? My Amazon set served its purpose, but oof, not fun.

 

[SwampDonkey]

+1 I could definitely upgrade my cheapos too. Not fun.

If you search I think it was the Shop Talk sub-forum for "needle files" posted by me, folks gave some good ideas in that.

Hi Heckel, who made the one on bottom row, 3rd in from the left, it’s got the heavy hammering and TF looking finger notch.

Both of these are literally perfect handle-blade pairings.

Def Maz, no doubts!

Wasted my day off working on my Nigara Ginsan. Took out the etching and polished it. Why? Because I hate the drag that the etching is making. Performance is way better after polishing it.

I've only had one etched knife and hated the drag. No more for me.

It’s neat how much of the grind can be read off a linear-source reflection. Bit like with the Venetian blinds.

This is a first-gen cousin to

222mmx56mm MagnaCut (63 hrc)

which is probably ground more laser near the edge.

Last outing for a couple of months… next daylight in May!

165mm bunka. super blue core s/s clad. Ironwood & bog oak handle.

Unfortunate tip damage on this Birgersson.

So I cracked some elbow grease, snap the bent tip off, and grinded the spine down. Gave the bevels a few hours of work on SG220, SG500, Ouka, and Flitz; changed the hollow low level into a convex low bevel. The thinning was for ease of sharpening, as parts of the edge wasn't getting sharp properly.

I have to say, this knife cuts beautifully now. Spine of a laser, with the food release of a work horse, in a 225g package. Lovely steel and lovely blade.

Looks like a pretty well balanced grind. The wide bevel means the hook is only doing so much though, it seems.

Initial impressions?

You’ll just have to evict the Tsubaki beeswax and Kasumi power. Prime real estate.

You have knives longer than 180mm?

You have knives longer than 180mm?

The real question is do I have anything shorter.
