Here goes.
For sale is a 270mm custom wa shigefusa kitaeji gyuto/sujihiki hybrid. This was ordered through Hide's export a few years back. I requested a 270mm gyuto with the tip lowered so the edge would have less belly compared to a typical shigefusa gyuto and a heel height of 49mm. It comes with a custom friction fit ho wood saya made by shigefusa and the original box(box is torn slightly). I don't use this knife as much as I would like to, so I am selling it. The knife is in excellent condition. It has been cared for regularly, being oiled and hand polished by myself with uchigomori fingerstones.
Measurements:
Overall length w/ saya 475mm
overall length withough saya 447mm
length of edge measure heel to tip 277mm
handle to tip 290mm
handle length 157 mm
height at heel 49.5mm
handle diameter where ferrule meets blade 27mm
thickness of spine above heel 3mm
thickness of spine at middle 1.8mm
thickness of spine 1cm from tip 1mm
