Looks sexy, but what is it? One of these days you should post a picture of your collection.

Konosuke Togo Reigo Vintage Carbon. Kasumi finish no shinogi line blade.
These were hand finished on Japanese natural stones with hamaguriba edge.
One of two made. The other 4 have shinogi.

Just got this monster of a knife today! Tesshu Abura Honyaki B1. This knife has a super sharp edge and yet is hefty. Very much blade heavy. A little bit in front of pinch grip! Definitely a workhorse knife!

Haha. I'm going to go out on a limb here and perhaps add: like in life, one cannot make up for years of practice and experience overnight, nor can one "buy" good karma. Congrats Ray (and Chip). I'm glad you guys got your hands on these blades!
