Buchanan-Smith’s January Blade Directive

“I love a good, sharp blade. I love finding the perfect one for the job. I love putting in the effort to keep it sharp. And I love the ease of cutting with a good, sharp blade. For the month of January, we're releasing some of my favorite blades. They will be good. And yes they will be sharp.”—PB-S
