Sorry for the late reply. Yes, I have used it in the kitchen and it cuts like a laser. It's a very thin blade and is very slicey. I cut an onion so fast that 'it' cried!
I'll try to get by there and check it out. In my experience I have two BRK/Tope Water Moccasins in Magna-cut and they both show signs of patina from use. I don't have a problem with it at all, kinda gives it some character.
@ seems like consensus on forum was that Magnacut was highly resistant to stain/“patina”, to the point many many accusations it wasn’t Magnacut steel from long time owners of many Magnacut knives. All of it is confusing to me to the point of hesitation of ordering WA BR Santoku. Blade Forum discussion also had photos a WA handled Santoku?????? 🤷🏽🤷🏽🤷🏽🤷🏽🤷🏽
Have you used it in the kitchen yet? How was it?

Please let us know if you had any problems with the Magnacut steel staining on the BR Santuko, thanks!
No problems so far but if it does get patina you can usually buff it off with Flitz or other mild metal polish.
@ just read a 13 page discussion on Blade Forum about the DLT Bark River Magnacut Santoku “staining”. Response much appreciated!
