Hey TCK!
Just wondering if there are any Single-bevel lovers out there!
Currently looking to explore into single bevels, I’ve used a cheap Yanagiba and a Masamoto Deba. Currently probably looking for a 250+ kiritsuke or usuba recommendations.
I’d also like to know some good makers/smiths/sharpeners that are known for single bevels! Or any info, I’m not knowledgeable at all regarding single bevels.
Appreciate it!
