reread this and laughedLooks great. I'll join you on that train
Have you tried that axe wax I keep seeing everywhere? If I can avoid creating a proprietary blend that’d be ideal! I accidentally stripped a tiny bit of whatever coating was in my Taihei off (not completely stripped but is uniform) when applying acetone to remove lacquer. It feels 90% like my brand new Taihei but just want to resell it to be certain

I hear ya, I get the same feeling. He's one of the few makers that I have multiple knives from, that's how much I like Travis' work. Don't sleep on Lucid, folks!amazing pick up, Lucid may put a bigger smile on my face than any other knife I own. I just got added to his custom list for a Nakiri
I got the blade from tokushu knife. This blade really gets thin behind the edge.That’s a beauty! Where did you get the knife? Choil looks amazing.
Thank you!I tried axe wax but it didn’t seem much different than typical board butter (mineral oil + beeswax). It darkened the 2 handles I tried it on and didn’t hold up to washing, so I wasn’t a huge fan.
If you want something that builds a light coat try Tru Oil. It seems to be a thinned blend of oil-based resins. 2-3 coats gives a very light satin sheen and the protection lasts for a while. I stopped after 2-3 coats as I wanted a natural look but you could do more coats if you wanted a more finished/top-coated look.
Ordered. Lol.I got the blade from tokushu knife. This blade really gets thin behind the edge.
I kept trying to trade for a Lucid, but I wasn't dangling the right carrot, so I just got one not too long ago. It is a big and beautiful cutter. I just got a shi.han and they are within 4 g of each other. Good 1-2 punch in the WH arena. The Lucid is a wrought clad spicy white, like that Hyde I got from you. It's a good combination. I wish I liked nakiris more.amazing pick up, Lucid may put a bigger smile on my face than any other knife I own. I just got added to his custom list for a Nakiri

Awesome! I just purchased up the same Tanaka from them last week but I don't have it in hands yet. I read a lot about this blade from other places and was curious to see how it compares since it looks this is one of the rare few with the sharpener listed!NKD! Bday knife 3 of 6.

Yea they didn’t want to disclose the sharpener at first when they first started selling this knife. Then now they actually inputted on their page who the sharpener is.Awesome!

I think it’s the same sharpener as the full convex Migoto? Might be my misrecollectionYea they didn’t want to disclose the sharpener at first when they first started selling this knife. Then now they actually inputted on their page who the sharpener is.
