Wow amazing patina on the rj gyuto! It looks like the jigane is intact. Was it done on purpose or the jigane simply does not give any patinas?

Very nice patina. Also, at least from this viewing angle, I like the profile of the knife. What is it if I may ask?

It’s a Kikuichimonji B#1. I picked it up when I was in Kyoto last November. Super fun knife.

Children smurfs are gonna be sad now that papa smurf has been sliced to pieces.

But even that initial blue will disappear after a while when you use it for veggies, no?
