Re: Patina photos
This is probably my most used knife, I reground it a few months ago and just let the patina build naturally, this is 80crv2 steel.

Re: Patina photos
That picture gives the impression that the knife has been misbehaving and is getting ready to be punished.
If God wanted me to be a vegetarian he wouldn't have made animals taste so good.
Re: Patina photos
Lol you guys are killing me, i didn't even think about the dishwasher in when I took this picture. Rest assured, the only knives that go in there are the dollar store butter knives.

Re: Patina photos
Testing tinypic with a iPhone snap of a Doi that's picking up my favorite patina to date.

Ikeda AS Gyuto purchased 2/2/17
Ikeda AS Nakiri Brand New
Thought you guys would like to see the patina difference. Also, both have CKTG's Blue Maplewood Handles. You can see the wear/fading profile on these.

Re: Patina photos
Picked up a yahiko yesterday and made some chicken...
Just some iPhone snaps. First photo the white balance is a little blue (the floor is too cool, unlike the second), but the colors are unedited.

Re: Patina photos
Same man! I'm tempted to strip it and try again to see if I can get even more of the deep blue.

Re: Patina photos
Yup! Just a chicken breast fresh out of a 149 degree water bath. Sliced it in half right away and left the blade in it for 5-10 minutes. Chicken was a little dry then as I didn't let it rest, but I wanted to see what would happen patina wise, ha. Success!Chefspence wrote: ↑Mon Feb 05, 2018 8:40 pmYa that would look killer!

Re: Patina photos
I'm afraid to use it again as I doubt it's even remotely stable and I'll lose it.
