These are variations of a profile (one is narrower toward the tip) I selected for a suji I will offer. Length on the edge 280mm, tip to handle - 295mm. The knife will be thinly ground and will be light and nimble. I will aim for the ballance point at the machi, but might have to move it up the spine a little bit.
This profile is not based on any particular knife profile, but rather on elements of several sujis that I like (Masamoto, Shigefusa, Yoshikane, etc). So this is my own interpretation of a suji. Let me know what you think.
This is probably the longest blade I will make, but I will introduce shorter ones down the road.

PS: Dykem layout fluid is to highlight the profile
