    I got another Shun Kramer Meiji SG2 knife in for refurb. This one needed repairs to the edge, tip, and then blade thinning.

    WOW, that's a nice job. Too bad you have to send it back to the person whom did that amount of damage to it in the first place

    It could have been accidental, or the result of a relative abusing it.

    This is true just painful to see a knife that nice in such rough shape

    Agreed. I'll bet Dave has a "chamber of horrors" set of pics that would set our hair on fire if he posted them.

    Nice, almost makes it look like a composite Damascus.

    Nice work Dave. I like the look of the darker contrast of the etch. Iirc, the new ones have it all but polished away.
