^^ Any info on the deba and the yanagi (I think that's what they are).
that's not a deba, its a 6.75" santoku knife made buy kobayashi (dojo series). it's a hitachi blue steel core clad in stainless. the knife is very thin and light, i have the edge around 15-18 degrees per side and it cuts like a laser beam.
the yanagiba is 270mm (i forget who the maker is). the yanagiba originally came with a kuro (black) finish, i hand polished the whole blade. the blade is hitachi blue steel clad with iron.
this is what the yanagiba looked like before:

Man singularity when I saw you comment I thought it would be you posting that lovely Caly in Superblue haha. I have been searching all over for one of those now after seeing your regular posts of it.
Just because you can't see the difference doesn't mean it isn't there; it just means you can't see it.
Every cutlery alloy is good for something. No cutlery alloy is good for everything.
Order of Kai #0566
My latest purchase... just got it up to hair-whittling sharp on my sharpmaker.
I was actually a little disappointed with the factory sharpness... it wouldn't even shave, still very sharp, but definitely much better now!
Also tried out an app called Camera+ ... works way better than the default, eventually I'll get a real camera.
Where's Mika to recommend me one?
