Gerd you’re incredibly kind. Thank you.
Interesting timing on these two videos. I have actually been keeping an eye on a Kawachi Kasumi gyuto over on ebay, which I believe is fully reactive. Most of my collection is stainless clad at the very least, so iron clad seems a bit daunting as far a maintenance sometimes. This pair of videos makes it seem much more manageable. Provided you stay dry and keep an eye on your knives to get out ahead of any potential problems.

So will my carbon steel knife always stain my food? Or if I force a patina it will go away. I was cutting onions and they were getting black.

Something like a super high content carbon steel knife, full carbon so not even stainless clad, if no patina, can and will stain your food depending on what you're cutting. As you mentioned an onion, that is one such example. If you had a carbon edge knife with stainless clad, would still happen but to a much lesser extent. However as you asked and pointed out, when patina builds up, not only does it provide additional protection from oxidation, it will help minimize the bleed onto food. Again though, the staining of food even with a high carbon blade won't happen on everything you cut. It'll happen more precisely if you move from one wet or acidic ingredient to a non watery ingredient. Example, full carbon knife, cut some cherry tomatoes than cut an eggplant without wiping the blade between and you'll surely cause black streaks on the eggplant. This help?
I need to try this 🥔 trick

Works best on light rust and staining. Really the key is the baking soda which acts as both whitening agent and mild abrasive. The potato is fun because how many sponges have you cut through when cleaning? Here it’s a potato so safe to use and also adds some moisture to the equation.

Collect no, as in I don’t have all the legos I had as a kid anymore. Currently just rocking the Lego bonsai ❤️ I did see that new Japanese piece that is very tempting. You?
