Nice to spot a new but familiar "face" on these boards!

Interesting that these don't have the typical hollow ground triangular cross section.

I'm curious as to how that translates into handling characteristics. My guess is the triangular hollow ground blades will be stiffer and maybe lighter.

The one I have (which you've handled; see attached) is 326 grams and balances at 7.5 cm from the guard, 9.5 cm from the cross. But then again it is also considerably shorter at 96.5 cm.
