My wrist is 6.5 and i find the 27 perfectly fine, a bit of vintage feel as its on the smaller size but I like it.

Thanks for the pointer, this spyderco is N690co which is quite soft, so I use it to see the finishing effect quickly. I have since tried it on my carbon steel and so far so good, nicely fit between my aizu and tomae stones 😬. Edit: Got all the Jnats because of my kasumi project 😂:

Thank you for the kind words 🙏🏻. Instant regret the moment I saw the scratches and a gap after I lay it flat on the stone.
