Thanks, Jeff! I'm really lovin' it. I think it might have bumped my Konosuke FM out of my favorite knife to use position. Cuts as good as it looks. But, need more time with it.

Tansu Honyaki showed up today. Tazmanian blackwood handle mokume bolster. His handle work and tang fit is top shelf, super happy with this one.

Absolutely love it. Cuts every bit as good as it looks. You know it must be good when I grab that more often than the KF FM now.
