Oh Great....NOW I'm hungry

And yep, mine still has the original edge it arrived with, nice stuff that m390 and the heat treat seems pretty good.

Yes the Gatsby 390 is a very good cutter.
Now has anyone used the Bradford chef knives.If so how did you. like them.

I've not handled their chef knives, they look pretty capable too, if someone has one and wants to post images in this thread, please feel free to do so.

Well, your mod was a hit, and Bradford is releasing a clip point Gatsby. Here's my post about it: http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...-Gatsby-in-Clip-Point?p=15873121#post15873121

Hi Gary, how comfortable is the handle.Have you put it to use, especially in the kitchen. Thanks.

 

[Gary W. Graley]

Very comfortable handle, nice curves that give fine control of the knife, not much use in the kitchen yet but I can tell she'll be excellent

Tried this out on a few things in the kitchen, cuts amazingly well, as you might expect from a blade with about .012" at the top of the edge bevel, ground down nice and thin and with M390, plenty tough too !
