..and then there is Russ Andrews clean.

I commented that few makers work can stand up to this close of scrutiny. Russ' can.

I chose to show his wispy hamon on the profile shot. The blade finish looks deceptively inconsistent in that view. I assure you it's the finest hand-rubbed finish you can acquire.

WTG Russ!

What Nick and Coop said. Can't really add much, except maybe a little drool

 

[SBranson]

I can't believe I missed this... Boy, "clean" is an understatement. This is about as nice as it gets.
