Hi,
here are few questions:
(aimed at "Classic series" Shuns)
Are these discontinued or not (replaced by those designed by K. Onion)?
How does tang of Shuns look like? Is it tapered to the end? How thick and tall is it (I don't need precise measurement, I'd be happy with rough idea)?
Is bolster welded (seamless) or pinned & glued (epoxied)? And how is held the butt cap - welded to the tang I guess?
How much pronounced is damascus (pattern welded) cladding?
How good is fit and finish?
I'd also appreciate your pics
P.S: Do you have recommendation for a store carrying Shuns that sends to Europe by USPS First class international? I'm aware of NGK. Any others?
P.P.S: ThomasW - @ Kershaw's web for the classic series there is misplaced blade and overall length - link
