Can you share a picture that shows the taper?

Can you share a picture that shows the taper?

Yes, only I need a little time to photograph the taper.

For those that do not know, before you even get into forging the damascus cladding, the billet of Rex121 at that thickness and height was probably hundreds of dollars, compared to something simple like AEB-L which is $4 for a foot. I wouldn't be surprised if over 50% of the asking price was raw material cost.

Andrei makes some of the best performance per dollar knives around, especially if you are into high end PM steels, but most probably know that by now. Always dreamed of a k390 or rex121 damascus gyuto from him. I have an s90v gyuto and a Rex121 petty from him that I love.

GLWS!

It's not only the raw cost of the steel. Watch the Deadboxhero videos of him working this steel - you go through a lot of belts and it is time consuming.

This is a stunner of a knife. The cladding is beautiful, and with the REX121 core, it would be forever before you ever have think about thinning it.

Beautiful work, Andrei - your knives keep getting better and better!!

Such a handsome knife. Really knocked this one out of the park

 

[captaincaed]

Really impressive work. How is laminating rex121?

Holy crap that choil shot! I already have one of Andrei’s knives but I think I might need another.
