Posted elsewhere, but just got the final product from Yun before he shipped. I think his work is tight!

I am a Florida Gator, so there is a connection to the loud colors. I think the Z is Yun's way of marking his full ZDP blades. Those before were a laminate with another steel I don't recall...sanmai maybe? He can no longer get the laminate, so he switched to pure ZDP-189

Good to know. I guess I have one more reason to hold on to my Yuna laminates.
 
Damn brother!!! You just took the Florida Gator tribute to a new level. Later in the year I'll have a custom Demko with orange scales and blue backspacer. Go Gators!!!!

Awesome score! I have a Yuna coming in late summer -- really looking forward to it!
 
Thank you very much John! Very happy to work with you. :) :)
Yes, you're right! "Z" is mean Pure ZDP-189

I took delivery of the Yuna on Friday and been carrying and flipping it ever since. About an hour after I took delivery I already placed an order for a Qi...Yun's work is that impressive!!!! Too bad I won't see the Qi until early next year, apparently others know about Yun's work too. All I can say is if there is ANY way you can pony up the coin, it is WELL worth it. My XM-18 will go up for sale soon to fund the Qi.
 
Yuna knives really are fantastic. Yun does an incredible job making these all by hand on the limited equipment he has. I really want a Hard-2 and an Assassin, but my funds have to be allocated elsewhere as of now. I'm proud of the three I have and I'm really glad I have them.

Good score on your Mini Hard-2. Being from NY, the first things that I thought when I saw the Blue/Orange scale were the Mets and the Knicks.

That is nice, I'm not a Gator, but they are my College Football Team of choice, and Basketball team of choice. Congratulations on that! That Yuna is really awesome.
 
Looks great!! I keep getting tempted by the assassin model but the recurve is holding me back.
