Those handles are so sick! Congrats on a great collaboration. If I needed a 270 (or hadn't exceeded my knife budget), this would be sold...!

Thanks Steffen!

Dave that handle compliments your knife very well - nice looking package!

This is what I was hoping to hear. Thanks Jack

I love this collaboration for two reasons. First it's two different vendors helping each other out, and two, it results it a fantastic finished product. Will there be any 225 or 210's made in CMP as you work your way thru the sheet?

That is a great collaboration!

Thanks guys!

I have all blanks cut already, nothing smaller than 240mm gyutos available.

Also would consider a 210mm gyuto

:whistling: Still available.....

Amaizing work wish I had the money to afford one now.... someday I'll get one !

I'll be here when you're ready King!

Getting these down to $450 by using a prefabricated handle rocks. Not mention the handles are gorgeous too. There is definitely no loss in quality at a lower price point.

I'm glad to hear your thoughts on this Andrew. I had hoped that people would feel this way besides myself.

Let's try a price drop....$400! :bigeek:

I really wish it was a 240.

Still mighty tempted tho

Someone buy this! 😁

How is this not sold? Almost a week at a bargain of a price and now a price drop. I hope it sells before I get a couple of beers in me and ignore my most recent bank statement.

This is getting silly! Since this is maybe more of a pro use size I will add that I took my 01 steel 240 gyuto to Zaytinya for Mike C to play around with for a shift while I went to watch the Capitals play. After the game I told the server I need to see Mike to get my knife back. Mike came into the dining area with a grin from ear to ear. He was in love with the grind and really liked the profile. He said something along the lines of this guy's knives are going to get noticed and once they does his prices won't be so great. This was about 3 months ago. I've loaned him about 6 very high quality knives, this was his favorite, by far. Just saying...

At this price it's a screaming deal and looks killer. It's just too big at 270 for me.

Bill maybe you can Chef Costa into this one...

Ok Dave, I'll do it. I'm in transit right now, but you might have my contact info...

SOLD!
