Introducing another CKTG Exclusive! Shigeki Tanaka has made these Blue #2 Kurouchi 210mm Gyutos for our store! It's hard to find a good knife with good grinds and made with blue #2 steel heat treated to HRC 62-63 at a reasonable price, so we think these will be a big hit with our customers. The knife comes with even grinds on each side of the knife and a D handle.
I use this spray on my straight razors and the results are simply amazing. I was so skeptical from the other reviews but they are true! This spray adds a new level of sharpness that you can’t get with CrOx. Use it with the balsa strop. Be wary about the basla strop…it is NOT flat. You need to sand it down say 0.030” to get it nice n flat. Mine had a bow in the middle of it. Not a big deal with me as I planned to sand it down anyhow just to expose fresh wood for this spray. Back to the spray…use just a few pumps. I did this on my first razor and that amazing sharpness was there. For my second razor I used a few more pumps and I couldn’t get it sharp. Sanded the wood clean and put back the initial 3-4 pumps and there was that amazing sharpness.
