Sorry that I did not search for WTB before I posted the Kamon. I am normally a sucker for WTB threads.

Let me know what you are looking for in a knife to see if I have anything as an alternative to what you have listed.

It's okay, it happens. Specifically looking to try out certain makers.

Modern cooking has two Merion in stock
Merion Forge
Thank you! I'm aware of them, but not quite what I'm interested in

While not 52100, this is pretty close since Shihan specifically targeted his 52100 to feel more like white steel.
