Finally some more Damascus blades on CKTG, but wow! What a heavyweight, at 9.2oz :shock:

Okada is the same smith who makes the BBQ octopus-slayer-swords, right?

This one interests me. I'm spinning a few plates at the moment, but if one falls, I may pick this up. Maybe a paid passaround......?

I would probably be game.
I doubt I would want to own it, but I would certainly put in a few dollars to have it come through.
EDIT: I forgot, I just landed me a Fuji B#2 (same like EVERYBODY else, it seems), and might have to hold off for a while.. then again, your plates haven't fallen yet. So, keep me in the loop :mrgreen:

The page says the grind is even, the choil shot doesn’t look symmetrical. I assume the appearance of the choil shot is due to the camera.

I would be down for a pass around.

If there is enough interest, I'll sponsor a passaround. Soundoff if you want in.
