After reading the initial information of a second mass drop, I was sure I was going to pass. Was lucky to be included in the first one, no real need and also financially... But after getting more information, it is so tempting!! First heard about Xerxes 6 years ago and actually thought about ordering a knife back then. Prices were much less back then, but considering the kind of work he puts out now, this offer is hard to resist...

erfect F&F goes without saying” only Jannis can say that and get away with it
It's refreshing and encouraging to me though, that all KKF massdrop events so far are being taken on by makers who treat all parts of the knife as part of their job (as opposed to ones who think finishing their work is beneath their dignity or something). I'd much rather hear a bold claim of perfection than a mumbled "Oh well, let the customer fix it, I'm too busy".In his message to KKF “.. : Perfect F&F goes without saying” only Jannis can say that and get away with it
Exactly my sentiments - for the prices we pay for some knives, customers are having to do too much work before the knife is acceptable- for some makers, it’s “part of the experience” - Denka, mazaki. But does it have to be?
Haha - we are in the business of getting you a knife, not hogging them - though I admit, I am tempted by these evil ideas

It sounds like going to a drug dealer or something.
If you mother****ers turn this thread into a TF thread I stg...
Just make a rule, anyone who talks about another knife here gets banned from the drop.If you mother****ers turn this thread into a TF thread I stg...
That would definitely exclude everyone from the drop, even the organizers themselves
True, Ashi Honyaki is is overrated.

I love the way this drop is spinning out... Drugs... dead horses....You don't really go to a lot of drug dealers, do you?
There’s a pill for thatMy horse is already dead. And I’m not talking about real horses here
