Finely i got my self a Tamahagene knife ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I was just looking for a knife to test my stones and try to polish Tamahagene (home made steel) knife.
So i send Bob email if he had one cheap Demo knife that was not polished in stock.
And he had![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
First i thought that shape was very wired and ugly, but sins i just will use it for display and test i just ordered it !
Knife came very fast and Bob was very helpful !!!
I wanted to polish it with only stones without any sandpaper or compounds, i learned a lot from this polish, it looks very amazing now and shape is not odd at all, like i thought it will be, actually it is very practical and very nice to use ! Its suji, gyuto hybrid![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I started with coarse Aoto, fine Aoto, Ohira suita, Atago kiita then finished with Nakayama fingerstones.
I think that now i am a lot better polisher

Here is pics !
Test of cutting will come later with video !
