Has anyone heard of the Kim Taek Soo brand jpen?  I'm interested in buying one, but I'm not sure what the characteristics of this blade is compared to the Butterfly RSM G-Max jpen

KTS has quite a few Jpens now. Your top 3 are Prime Blue, XO and Finally Gold. Gold is the one you see in the wooden box. I own Blue and XO I am working on acquiring a Gold. They are Both 10.5mm and weigh a little over 100g . Compared to Gmax they are a little heavier and stiffer but thats cause they are  thicker . I consider these Korean penhold blades (fast & heavy). In terms of grain quality compared to other blades  Prime Blue= Cypress S, XO= Gmax, Gold =KKT/Darker.  The bad part is the cost and availability. KTS is a Korean brand and mainly only sell in Korea. There are a few vendors outside Korea but availability can be a problem as well. Cost is also a problem . Prime Blue is typically $200-$250 shipped, XO is around $450+ shipped and Gold well its about the price of a  new Bfly KTS red.... All this being said they are very nice blades and will be nice collectibles . The other people that I know who own them  love them.
