Both my main knives are 10" Gyutos love the shape. That one is too sexeh for work in my kitchen at work though.
 
Nice. I like that you went with a yo handle, wa on these often doesn't look right to me. The dammy pattern of course is sick. I often put one mosaic pin between two corbys myself, it adds a little flair but is less ostentatious than three would be.

What's the thickness at the edge? And by full blended grinds, I'm assuming you mean a slightly convexed flat?
 
Thanks guys for the kind words and comments.

Salem, The grinds are full height, from the cutting edge to the spine. The blade tapers very nicely to a fine, very fine tip. The faces are convexed.. Food will not stick as much to a convexed face as it will to a flat face. Edge thickness is as follows, Measuring above the cutting edge on the face of the grinds. Its a average of .43mm

Again Thanks for looking and God Bless!
Randy
