A few pieces

I've got a few things that I'm looking to sell to fund some new knives, or to just trade off for other knives.

First up is a Masamoto KS 240mm gyuto. In the interest of disclosure, this is one of the ones from Rakuten. I don't know if its thick or thin behind the edge, only that I don't find it particularly chunky. Its been used for about two weeks in a pro kitchen then left to one side, probably sharpened 2-3 times.









I'm looking for 250$, and I'll go halfs on worldwide shipping, or I'll cover it inside the UK.


Next is a 270mm suji from JM Forge. I got it from a member here, who said it was the second best suji they've ever used, only behind their Rader. Its in w2, and has a burke saya with it, along with a Keller handle made from exhibition koa and marble buffalo horn.







Looking for 300$, same deal with the shipping.


150mm Ealy petty, steel is O1, handle is box elder and redwood. I really like the handle on this and I think its a great little line knife. I've only had this for about a month, but its been in my case since it arrived so has seen some use. Been touched up probably 4 times.



Looking for 225$ which is what I paid for it.

Finally there is this JMJones 200mm (8 inch) slicer. I got this as part of a trade from Turbochef. His measurements were as follows:
Blade Length:205 mm/ 8 inches
Width at heel:35mm
Thickness of spine @
Heel 3.6mm
Mid 2.1mm
1 inch from tip 1.1mm

I havent had this knife long, but I do like it. Again, it makes a fantastic line knife, and the edge retention is very good. I can just tell that even though I like the knife, it isn't 'the' knife that I want.





I'm looking for 225$ for this one.

I'm open to trades on all knives, so if you've got something just let me know.

Cheers

As you happen to be a left-handed, I guess you've put a 50/50 edge on them. As for the KS, is that a beginning of pitting I see?

I was going to ask the same thing.

The edges are all around 50/50, or righty bias. I've never bothered to make them leftie friendly because I don't have issues with steering on them.

No pitting, just dark spots on the patina where lemon juice or whatever has hit it. I've just given it a quick polish and its come up fine, but I'll get more pictures if anyones really concerned by it.

Suji, KS and the Ealy are all SPF.

That Masamoto looks like the Masamoto i bought a couple years ago from JCK.

the ks looks good to me. nice enough choil, and im sure alittle BKF would clean off the patina quickly, if so desired.

I say use it, wait three months, clean it up and post it again so it sells in ten minutes.

Masamoto and suji back up

must resist the urge to own an ealy petty... :IMOK:

O, You'll need 4-5 posts to enable pm function. Anti-spam measure. Suggest going to new members sub-forum and intro yourself, say hello to a couple others. There are several from the sunshine state here.

And welcome.
