  1. This arrived last week.
    A 260 Prendergast, incredible value.
    Liking it a lot at the moment.
    Lighter than I expected, and very thin behind the edge.
    Very good cutter, one heck of a taper - couldn't get a good photo.
    Very slow to patina.

    Not sure if I've really captured the hammer finish all that well.

  11. @Robin Dalman Gyuto 21 cm. AEBL. Handle: strongly figured birch masur, eindeer antler ferrule.
    a "new finish" on this one, as well as the "new grind" (higher and slightly hollow).
    It looks amazing. I will make a review in January. First impression are great and the first cuts of carrots were flawless.

    Okay Huw, let's see some patina pics from that Cru V now...My Cru V knife takes a wicked dark blue patina and that is from home use. Can't imagine how cool it looks from pro use.
