Wow, seems much skinnier than his low bevel grinds. is the honyaki more like a convex lasery grind?Nice. How much does yours weigh. Mines 180ish gram and such a joy to fut with
yes, feels stiff at the spine though. It's probably why he used a lighter handle material to balance out the blade.Wow, seems much skinnier than his low bevel grinds. is the honyaki more like a convex lasery grind?

Wow. What steel is it?
I assumed, so I checked his IG. The one honyaki I saw wasn't as nicely polished so I thought I'd confirm with the buyer.Everything Yanick has done for the past few years is 135cr3
Mine is also not as extreme belly. Still deciding on handle options for this guy.
