Just wanted to let everyone see Pierre's latest work.
It's a 270mm wa-sujihiki in 3/32" CPM D2 (powder metalurgy version, so finer grain size) at HRC 61-62. Handrubbed to 1000 grit.
Rounded spine and choil, full distal taper, slight convex grind.
G10 ferrule, white vulcanized fiber / stainless spacers, mammoth spacer, stabilized Masur birch burl handle, G10 end cap, with vulcanized fiber and stainless spacers. Mosaic pin in buttcap.
Balance point at front of handle.
