Et,
That's a very nice Kiridashi...the handle looks like curly Maple...
The douk-tiki came with a factory blackened blade. The large douk started to get a natural patina with use and I liked the black blade on the little guy so much I accelerated the process with the large. Soaked it in some very strong instant coffee (about the only thing that stuff is good for) and then mineral oil.Did you sand then patina the blades? They look really nice!
That's a Scott Cook Lochsa.
