Very sporadic patina, I love it

My apartment is practically made of windows and I still have to go outside to get a solid pic of patina lol. Loving the 52100, definitely gonna get more blades in this steel.

Nothing like a stainless clad carbon to highlight a patina. Bit o' blue settling in on a new gengetsu w#2.

And you can thank my mother in law for the ove glove in the background

This one is 270 white 2, bought before the b1 were launched. Has there been 270 b1 already? I only saw the 240s, but I wasn't really looking since I already had one.

I wrote wrong. 270b1 hasnt been available yet but Takada said that they are on the way...
