Amazing knife Butch. It must be a real challenge to get the blade so perfectly even over the entire 13 inches. I bet it takes a great many hours with both the belt sander and then the hand sanding before it gets even close to looking like it is now.
This knife deserves a busy and experienced professional chef to be fully appreciated.
Superp. Top of the top end slicers.
