Am I the only one questioning the magnetic sheath? While it sounds like a cool idea, as a professional chef and general knife enthusiast, magnetizing your blade is actually a bad idea. Certain cooking procedures produce an ionizing process that can make preparing them "interesting" and it also makes sharpening/honing/stropping/maintaining the edge in general more of a chore than it needs to be, as the steel shaving and particles congregate directly on the edge. I personally think that part should be rethought, as it really isn't a good idea.
Also, the grind seems a little thick in the photos, especially with nothing shown for scale. 28° inclusive seems a little wide for a Japanese styled knife, 15-20° inclusive would be more the norm. Would the thickness behind the edge as well as blade stock measurements be made available?
