Someone scooped up a good one here! Great blade!

Snake coming through again and again.

This whole thread is gold and I enjoy reading the updates each time there are some.

Sold, thanks KKF.

Selling a classic. Toyama 240mm Iron Clad. Rounded spine and choil and custom handle from Tony LaSeur. Also a matching maple saya. Has been polished to a kasumi finish (not by me - previous owner) but looks great. Great geometry, and hard, hard steel/HT. It's a pure cutter for sure and a nice...

Appreciate your thoughts Thanks, H. Appreciate these. And makes sense. I might be super boring and get an FXD, keep it on a strap, and call it a tweener. I hate the idea of having two Pelagos' (how do I make that plural?) but they are great watches to my eye and the movement is great. I'm...

Funny, just looking at the FXD MN version. My concern was getting good straps for it. How is yours holding up?

I used to have three Sinns. I couldn't take the bezel (needs improvement IMO) and weight of them. They wore heavy on my wrist. I never got the newer, smaller version, but the full sized were just monsters.

@gaijin - thanks for the tip. I will look at them. I tend to gravitate to more established/horticulturally prominent watches, as I love the history and in house movements. But always learning and it seems like there are more and more newcomers to the space that deserve a look.

Thanks! I love divers - just a diver guy I guess. 42mm is about perfect, can probably go 39mm-43mm without it making a huge statement of outsized proportions. Don't need a bezel, but I do love a good clean bezel. I have to say, I'm tempted by this IWC Petronas - it's just a beautiful color and...

Sad day two days ago, folks. August 2023 (almost new!) Tudor Pelagos 42mm Blue. Hit the the tile floor from waist height while I was walking and putting it on in the AM. This happened. Crazy. I absolutely would have expected it to withstand the drop. But it did not. Gotta send to my AD and...

@Blumbo - I've got a dammy 210 if you decide you want to go smaller. Just let me know if you want photos.

Damn! Missed another Snake super set!

Sold, thanks KKF!

Selling my Huber Mini-Cleaver monosteel Apex Ultra. Nice Nashiji finish, and a really nice convex 50/50 grind. 155mm blade length x 85mm height. I finished out the bevels and polished on stones and then a random orbital a-la Kamon so I could understand the pain of doing so in Apex Ultra. It took...

Sure are!

Should be a self explanatory photo! Note: two of three are mine.

Sold. Thanks KKF!

Any sense of how the Zp6 works on the Aeropress?

Hey folks, looking to try one of the Takada Reika blades. I've managed to get some nice Suiboku, but want to try the (in theory) more mid-weight Reika line. Prefer 240 gyuto, but would consider others too. Also would consider a Suiboku suji or nakiri. Thanks!
