First one is a Gengetsu Western handled 240mm Gyuto. I had to reprofile it - +/- 5mm chip in the center of the blade from a drop - it is now more of suji gyuto hybrid, with knuckle clearence. Great steel, excellent geometry, amazing cutter.
It is thinned ready to be sharpened, but does not have a final edge on it - thats for you. It does feel as good as any on the stones. Comes with a Ho wood saya.
$275 shipped
