It is with a heavy heart that I am selling this awesome piece. This was their first collaboration piece and they knocked it out of the park: https://www.kitchenknifeforums.com/...-195mm-65hrc-hand-polish-custom-handle.68621/
I am not a laser guy and thought I'd try one of the best. Still didn't do it for me. This is a special knife and needs to be enjoyed by someone who will use it more. It is INSANELY light at 130 grams which is crazy for a 195x 57. It has gotten some patina since I have used it but the original polish is still there.
I could say a lot more but Julien's original post was so informative that I will refer you there (above link). Some notes, ~65 hrc, Matt's HTs are excellent and it isn't chippy or brittle. I will probably regret this but I need to sell many to thin the herd, it's unwieldy. Julien's handle is absolute perfection too. It just doesn't get better. I'm sorry I'm selling this @KasumiJLA
I originally purchased this for USD $650 and will offer it for $550.
