Wow.
Steep learning curve time.
a) The time it takes for carbon steel to rust, is not very long at all.
b) I now know which parts of my blade are carbon steel and which parts are not.

My carbone Opinel rusts pretty much immediately.
Been contemplating a wafer thin carbon steel cleaver from Aliexpress to play with, don't think anyone in the household will be iron deficient afterwards... -
Yep! Always dry it immediately after cleaning. And always clean then it then dry it after cutting any sort of citrus!

I've run out of space on my magnetic knife rack, so not buying anything super fancy yet.
Very much enjoying my 220mm Shibazi cleaver for preparing veg, and the smaller Victorinox fibrox cleaver for meat, if only because its easier to clean.
