Haha yeah. Even as I've used quite a few more knives, they've stayed one of my favorites.You must really like Konosuke knives..
Single bevels were definitely outside my wheel house- I own a few, and they are fantastic, but I had no interest in collecting as obsessively, and trying to derive the iterative changes.Interesting interpretation. A good basic introduction for sure, but no mention of the single bevels from the early days throughout to the later days. I would have liked to have heard more about the disappearance of the original white lines in late 2014. When they were reintroduced in late 2015 they were nothing like the original. That was a defining point for me in konos evolution.
I enjoyed reading this and learned things I didn’t know previously - thank you for making my commute back home (with a banging headache) enjoyable.
Section about Togo Reigo/Reigou/Reigu steel is a little overly dramatic but I love it, really do love it.
I know you’ve been working on this for years and I take my hat off to you sir.
Also I don’t think anyone has mentioned it yet but Jesus dude you have an absolutely incredible collection!
Though shalt be dubbed the Kono-lord hence forth

Who did the grind and finish work on the sanmai Ginsan series circa 2015?
@Omega how many have you held onto?
So, with only two exceptions- The Konosuke White 2 laser-style Honyaki, and the 2nd B2 Fujiyama from 2016, that had numbers and pictures..
I still currently own every other knife listed.
So uhh... there are a loooot of knife boxes on my shelves.
