Bump

Made and ground by Matus, heat treat by Robin Dalman, unknown carbon steel but my first guess would be 52100, second would be 26c3 based on how the edge feels and the nature of the patina. Its carbon mono regardless, that part is clear. Never sharpened by me, very light home use. 175x30, 86g...

Us lefties know too well how hard it is to find decent single bevel knives at decent prices. Usually 50%+ more than the right handed versions 🤢 I think what we have here is a pretty nice lefty deba for a very nice price. Very light home use, don’t think it’s ever touched a bone, never...

Picked this up from Jesse Beatson over on facebook’s Japanese knife group. He polished it nicely and put new scales on the handles which look to be stabilized hardwood of some kind. The result is a slimmer handle with great fit and finish and a little more of a tactical look. Oh yeah, and it’s...

180mm blue1 squid petty. Really nice on draw cuts, especially on raw proteins, due to the forward swept heel. Great for general trimming and really excels at smaller portioning tasks like cubing chicken. 185 (155 edge)x34, 120g. Pretty cool opportunity to try blue 1 at a super low price point...

Probably the cheapest western integral you’ll see. 26c3 core, 185x52, 149g, comes with saya I retrofitted to accommodate the integral bolster $195 CONUS
