These are catch-and-release. I bought them not too long ago, used them sparingly and am looking to find them a better home so I can try something new. All prices include shipping to the USA. Please PM me if you're interested.
Ikazuchi 240mm Gyuto with friction fit saya $175
This is the Ikazuchi sold by JKI. It's a very thin knife with an aogami super core. It's still razor sharp and hasn't been used enough for a patina to form on the core steel. The only "wear" is a sparse amount of superficial streaks in the cladding steel from being inserted into the saya a few times. Otherwise, the cladding is still shiny and looks beautiful.
Sakai Takayuki Grand Chef 180mm Petty $70
This is a kind of hard to find version of the Grand Chef with a wa handle. Barely used and in excellent condition, but there's a tiny scuff on the right side toward the tip from when my finger slipped while sharpening it. Not a big deal, but need to disclaim anyway.
