Wow thanks for the heads up! Will try to sharpen it only then.......
@jedy617 seemed to have issue at getting it sharp...
It is more of an issue I think because I took an extreme amount of metal off behind the edge. If you have a bit more care, and maybe leave some of the low spots on the cladding I think you should be safer, you just won't get a perfect polish.
 
Jamison Chopp Cru-forge V with mild steel and nickel cladding. Just a stunner and got to pick up in person at the new shop.

I posted two boxes on the box thread. The first one was the @martinhuber Nakiri passaround. The second one is the newest member of my knife family. A Raquin from @bryan03. As a french, I'm ashamed it took me so long to finally get one from a french maker. (Also came with a nice biscuit ehe)

The knife is a 210 x 58 mm gyuto made with a 26c3 core steel with a xc10 cladding. I love the look and the height of the knife. The kuroichi and satin finish look amazingly rustic.

It tapers from 4.2 - 2.1 - 1.9 -1 mm. The handle is burnt oak and has lots of texture

Thanks for looking. Have a good day :)
 
I failed to get up before 9am on a hangover Sunday morning...🙃 damn the time difference between EU and west coast
I logged on 5 min after the drop and wound up with #17, so I think they went pretty fast

Pretty unique look. Kinda FKK aesthetic on a Kamon geometry - in terms of length and height
 
Kaeru stainless and munetoshi 210 petty.

Wanted a good stainless beater, came with a nice 204 grans and 51mm heel, 4.9 out of the handle. Not the thinnest bte but it was expected.View attachment 245158View attachment 245159
I like my Kaeru more that I thought I would. Not the thinnest BTE but the geometry is more sophisticated than I imagined (sort of an S grind with low bevels).
 
Finally snagged a yanick gyuto and also a honesuki via trade. mated nicely with the petty i already had. living up to the hype for sure. now looking for a gyuto in the 215-230 range.
