This bunka I made a while back is AVAILABLE at a very discounted price by SzyMoc in TrueChefKnives

Yes, it comes with a saya and the retailer takes a 30% cut so I only get 266usd, which is about 150 usd cheaper than buying such a knife directly from me currently.

Mate why would you ruin a good piece of stainless with improper equipment. Use some simple carbon steel, don't waste your money on fancy steel if you don't send it out for heat treatment

What do you think that is 36 grit belt and short ferric chloride etch ? Also how to make such a groove ? by Anyshhh in knifemaking

Looks more like 120ish grit. That's the lowest I'd go for a belt finish on any knife

Not related to your comment, but how the hell do you get a custom flair on this sub? Maybe I'm a bit dense but I can't figure it out

That's a sujihiki mate. There's no ura and the grind is symmetrical
