–Played a lot with knives and made a huge discovery: Shirogorov 3 Bears knives differ from 1 Bear knives only in how the blade is polished. It’s subtle, as all their blades seem to be finely media-blasted, but I had two knife pairs to compare, and it’s definitely noticeable: the 3 Bears blades are a little smoother, a little brighter. For example, you can count chandelier bulbs in a 3 Bears reflection, but they’re more like big yellow smudges on the 1 Bear blades. I need to publish this.
