Well, we all do it sooner or later!!!

I had a nice skinner blade of layered tamahagane and 1080. I hung it in the FC tank to check the pattern before the last sanding grit. Then went to do another task, and then fix dinner, and then do some hand sanding .... and found it the next morning. I was eaten severely. I reground it as a thinner and smaller blade. I had to redo the handle a bit because the tang was now thinner than when I cut the slot in the ebony. I'll post a photo of it after the final assembly today or tomorrow, but here is what it looked like when I found it.
