For your consideration is a Watanabe Pro 240 with Mike Henry handle. It was purchased from here:

http://www.kitchenknifeforums.com/showthread.php/26855-Echerub-s-BIG-knife-blowout-there-s-gonna-be-something-you-want-)

It has since been thinned and refinished by Jon Broida. The cosmetic issues mentioned by Len were resolved, but it developed a couple rust spots during shipping back from Jon. These left some minor pitting. I've priced the knife accordingly at $285 shipped ConUS/PPaled (what I paid).

Pics coming in a few hours.
 
I should also mention that Jon's refinishing seemed to wear the kanji down a bit. It appears visible but worn.
 
Loved my Watanabe 240 that I had for many years. Congrats on the sale, he makes a great knife.
