What is the angle of the bevel?

Mine was OOB @15, but I took it down to 14

How do you care for this knife?

Yoshihiro Cutlery's Hammered Damascus knives are very easy to take care of. Hand washing and drying is recommended as well as using a good quality cutting board. Honing on Japanese whetstones is also recommended because honing steels can adversely effect the edge of a Japanese knife.

Does anyone have a suggestion on a blade cover for this knife?

Yoshihiro Gyuto 210mm (8.25") Saya cover will fit to this knife.Thanks

The handle smells very strong of paint. Anyone else? It’s so bad that I can’t touch my food directly afterwards

I do not have this problem. There should be no paint on the handle!?!? I wash wine, use wood oil on it, and then bees wax.
