Hoping this is in the right section. I have the opportunity to buy a SHIMATANI Damascus DEBA knife 180mm/Blue steel from someone. They retail at around the 160US mark and I can get it for $110Aus + postage (I'd assume)
Only catch is the Deba suffered some chip out and he reground the bevel with a wetgrinder. No detempering but there are some #200 grind marks noticeable. With a little patience and technique on the right stones I should be able to fix this problem right? Or would it be best to avoid. My knowledge is limited but I'd imagine this is purely an aesthetic problem....
