The Bears' Den--Shirogorov Showcase

im not a huge fan of posting through imgur vs direct uploading.
If you're worried about others viewing your posts at imgur, you should know that the default setting for new posts there is "Hidden" and you have to click on "Share to community" to make them public. I believe you need a paid membership here at BF in order to directly upload, which is a good way to help support this forum. Despite my paid membership, I much prefer to use the desktop site at imgur, keeping my posts hidden there, simply copying and pasting the BB Code for any image directly into the text of my message here. That way I can edit my images for size there and avoid the clunkiness of the BF system.

Interesting posts, these last two from Casinostocks Casinostocks and mpjustin mpjustin , the first with a pic taken in an alternate universe with a left-handed F3 in xamlE steel, and the second more aptly title "Zero concern for getting my new knife wet".

For my part, I'll just offer my Turtle a "leg up".

Justin already won and ate 1/2 of your brownie :D
 
Congrats on the pick up! I have a Hation Zero in the mail from Russia. Hopefully it doesn’t take too long:)
 
This is my latest (and probably last) Shiro purchase... thanks to Casino Stocks and Justin

You’re very welcome Mike. You most definitely ended up with all of Justin’s best pieces. It started with his Sigma and then you went on a real year! The 1-of-1 Gorynych has some insane detail work! You must also be using Justin’s old pics when the knife was disassembled because it came back with ceramic bearings. I remember putting the original steel bearings in a little baggie for you ;)

I have the bearings! as to other comments...
1) I take crappy pictures
2) I rarely disassemble my knives
3) I am focusing on selling most of my non-shiro knives...
 
I wanted to start fresh so I did this progression. I have 2000/3000 grit water stones but I didn’t use them.
100/200
400/600
800/1000
1200/1600
.5 diamond spray
.025 diamond spray
Both were stoped using kangaroo leather.
