I have very early Tyrade, since November 2007. I store it opened on a shelf with glass doors, exposed to day light. Now copper became black. This is OK. The only thing I'm worry about - strange blurry spots where the copper line is thin (red dot marks). On first look it is not corrosion. But what else? BTW - is the copper line better on a later Tyrade? On mine it is almost non-existent at several places.
I've wiped spots by rubber eraser and put an oil on blade.
I really like composite blade idea. I want to buy new Shallot CB. But I use CB knives occasionally, I have other knives for hard use. Will this "blurry spot" disease spoil the composite blade by time?
