The Bears' Den--Shirogorov Showcase

This is fantastic news! No other Shiro model has spoken to me more than the Stellar. I have a first production and it’s fantastic. Compared to the other models I have, it seems even better engineered and more advanced, if that’s even possible with this maker. The features like the apron that blankets the titanium liner lock so nothing gets into that crevice
between the frame, the “Goldilocks” mid-size (it’s basically identical in size to a large CRK Sebenza), and amazing action that just seems glassier and smoother than other models - I couldn’t recommend you all trying one out more strongly! I can’t even imagine what Shiro could do to top the Stellar (but I’m super excited to see them try!!).
The Stellar is indeed stellar. I like that my 1st production is S90V, and wonder what steel will be used after that? Maybe Cromax PM?
 
It’s M390 (what I expected). Shirogorov posted on IG that the first batch of the standard production Stellars is being released today in Russia and a shipment is also inbound for R1, with a release date over here TBD. I’m guessing they’ll be available stateside in a week or two.

If you put a thumb on the RedTechnoCarbo scale and move it back and forth, you can feel some kind of inclusions in the flat surface — can’t you? I surely can.

It is not the case with black CF scales, so I guess the inclusions consist of the red paint added into the layers.

I don’t know how to explain it in a better way 🤔

Are your RTC scales silk smooth as black CF used to be?

Well, the mystery is finally solved -- the carbon layers on the surface are flat and smooth, while red pigment is not, you can see all the details on the 4k video:





And here's my picture of the day 🙃

Trying not to buy another knife this year but does anyone know when the production stellar will be available in the US?? Might have to make an exception
I'm eagerly awaiting them to show up as well... been out of the shiro game for a year or so because my neon was a little too small and my f95 a little too big.. this Stellar looks like the goldilocks model and I can't wait!
