Will customize to convex
Not long ago I got curious and convexed a 511, because I had a couple of new knives that were convexes too and I wanted something to practice sharpening them on. (You don't see a lot of beater-type convexes for sale.) I couldn't get over how cool the knife looked with those slinky curves in it after polishing, so I got this thicker one to have more material to work with. They're great as is, don't get me wrong, but I think they're also one of those knife lines that lend themselves to customizing—inexpensive, well made, and easy-to-work with carbon-steel models readily available.
