I try to guide bonesetter into the moral, almost religious benefits of single metal non damascus knives and all of you are spoling the (already wasted) guy. Damnation!

ordo - I don't know quite how, but I'm still lost in space

I'm feeling the draw for 'the one' (= the next one, until I've tried them all), or tried enough to synergise with Millions and Rick, and meanwhile soaking up the great BdLa x

You might get a coreless Damascus parer for $500, but anything like a 240 is going to be well over 1K

Check that post again.

But all said and done there is still a great deal of wisdom in Ordo's moral.

These are some of the knives Cosmo has in stock. They are ~$1K (Canadian), 8" and I'm not too sure about the profiles

I think I'm going to give up on the idea of a Damascus, certainly mono steel anyway and follow Ordo's mantra. Why blow the budget on one 'possible' when I can just get more knives for the same money??

I do like the Tanaka Blue R2 (with iron Damascus clad) Million's linked above though, so may go for that
