Beautiful work you have been doing with those fullered blades! Very unique looking. Your previously sold chef knife with the fullered blade, Karelian Birch handle, and Fat Carbon ferrule that is on your website is just about aesthetic perfection as far as I'm concerned.

I'm not very familiar 26C3 except that I believe it is Swedish. What steels would it be most comparable to?

Hey, 26c3 is very comparable to hitachi white steel just with a little more alloying, gives it a bit more wear resistance.
