Re: V-TOKU 2 Love

Honestly, regarding this sprint, I was concerned about how it would stack up performance wise to the plain Jane vg10, but now after having it and seeing how amazing it looks, I wouldn't care if it's on par with vg10 in the wear resistance category, because of how nice it is aesthetically. Plus, as a...

Re: V-TOKU 2 Love

Man I've been seeing some wicked patinas put on vtoku2 blade, I've been careful not to put a patina on mine but how are you guys doing this? I love the edge retention on vtoku2 and how tough it is especially for how hard people say it is, I just don't want to put a crappy looking patina on it and r...

Unable to upload avatar

I am new here, and I'm trying to upload a little avatar photo, but it keeps telling me my pictures are too large. I've tried resizing them in the iPhone photo editor, but nothing has worked. Does anyone have any suggestions on how they got a photo up for the avatar?. (And just to clarify, the avatar...

Re: V-TOKU 2 Love

EDCi spray protectorant works amazingly. Not cheap though ($12-$13) Collector Knives sells a protectant spray that is also great (can't think of the name) and if I remember is a little bit cheaper. Is that food safe?. People on the Inter-webs say it is, but their own website didn't mention it anywh...

Re: VTOKU Sprint Run

Thanks for the advice! I’m also interested in what would happen if I left it oil free? Would it just patina (assuming it’s wiped down)? Or be prone to rusting? And would a patina help with that? Or not be a factor either way.

Re: V-TOKU 2 Love

Hey Dave, welcome to the forum. I use Nano-oil for the pivot and keep a coat of Mineral Oil on the blade (commonly found in a pharmacy; sold as a laxative) and has worked very well in preventing rust, however this will not prevent a latina :D. Mineral oil is food safe, as it is meant to be ingested...

Re: V-TOKU 2 Love

Can I get some good info on different options for maintenance and care with the v-toku2 steel. Normally for my other blades I clean them with alcohol, and then use them without any other maintenance. Mostly because I use them a lot on food, and don't want oil ruining the food etc. Should I look into...
