Introducing Marukoyoshi by Yoshikane Hamono

[Potato42]

I'm loving that KU damascus suji.

 

[Marko Tsourkan]

It's a very unique knife. I haven't seen one like this before. Basically, it has to be hammered into shape and the metal is only removed on the bevels. The workmanship is outstanding - blade is straight, and the grind is very even on both sides.

I will be ordering Kasumi and regular damascus suji in the next week or so. I will order more KU suji if there is at least 2 people interested. I have to order 3 of each.

HMMM, is one of those sujis mine? If so, all I can say is yeehaw. :headbang:

It likely is. I held back ordering as I needed at least 2 people interested. I have to for both kasumi and damascus, so I will proceed with the order.

Hi Marko - can you let me know what the pricing is for the knives, and the difference between a standard and premium handle?
Thanks,
Josh

PS your pm box is full

 

[MadMel]

I would like to know the prices on the sujis too

Will do.

 

[TB_London]

Could you pm me the prices as well, they look awsome

 

[daddy yo yo]

marko,

just out of curiosity: do you still offer the marukoyoshi knives (by yoshikane) or pimped-up shigs? or do you purely focus on your own knives nowadays?

is yoshikane the same as yoshihide?

cheers,
daddy yo yo

Marko,

I would be interested in the gyuto, can you pm me a price? If I can swing the purchase I am trying to attend the ECG and could pick it up then, saving shipping and letting everyone there have some fun with it.

Thanks!

This thread is 2 years old. Pretty sure Marko concentrates exclusively on his own knives now.

 

[Marko Tsourkan]

Bill,
that project didn't go anywhere. I have given up on the idea of customizing other people knives and offering them for sale and instead I now concentrate exclusively on my knives.

[daddy yo yo]

(...)now concentrate exclusively on my knives.

and exclusive they are, and exquisit! :wink:

 

[Bill13]

Funny how I didn't notice that!

Marko,

I filled out a custom order form a few weeks ago that probably got lost in the shuffle. I will fill out a form tonight.

Thanks

Really beautiful Knives!

I will be in Japan Later this year and would love to visit Yoshikane blacksmiths.

Any advice on contacting them and an address?

Much appreciated
