WTB 255-270 midweight gyuto / Ashi cleaver (WTT Tsourkan 220 WH)

[Choppin]

Looking for midweight gyutos in the 255-270 range. I'm thinking Itinomonn, Wakui, Kochi, Heiji, Takada no Hamono, Konosuke… also interested in western makers, specially the Swedes and French guys . But pretty open here.

Also looking for Ashi Ginga #6 cleaver.

Will offer for trade (or partial):

Marko Tsourkan 220 WH
Kaeru Wakui 240 WH (1st gen, 240g)
Kaeru Wakui 210 WH
Toyama 300 yanagi (sharpened a few times)
Toyama 135 mukimono
Toyama SS-clad 150 petty

Thanks!

Bumping this specifically for the cleaver… found another model but would prefer an Ashi Ginga. Thanks.

I can only offer a Tojiro F-921 cleaver 225x110mm in VG10. But that’s probably not even close to what you’re looking for…

Bump and original post edited (because I keep changing my mind )

Thanks! I couldn’t find any 270 Tanaka in stock at Miura, do you remember which model was it? (probably my fault but I always get lost in their website…)

Oh I was talking about the cleaver is likely Tanaka, Miura do have Kagekiyo, Hado and their own Itadaki series tho.

Aah yes, got it… ideally the cleaver would be around 400g and those are 500g+. That’s why I like the Ashi, it’s fairly light for a #6. Thanks anyway!

Knifewear is going to be putting up a Takeda large cleaver for sale this week.

Thanks! Helluva knife but I'm looking for something slightly longer (250-260 edge length...).
