WTB 270mm wa-gyuto blade in carbon

[daddy yo yo]

Having missed that gorgeous Jiro 270 blade I wanna give it another try. WTB:

• 270mm wa-gyuto blade (generic wa-handles are ok, handle will be knocked off, so please no custom handles),
• carbon steel,
• minimum (!) height 52mm,
• more of a WH than anything else, and
• maker should be smth "fancy" (that Jiro would have nailed it)

Please PM.

Purchase or trade (available knives from Carter Muteki, Hiromoto, Ikeda, Markin, Misono, Tansu, Wakui).

Strata has another Jiro if you don't find anything here: Jiro - White #1 Tsuchime - 270mm Gyuto - No handle - #88

Edit: that says it's #088, which is the one that just sold here, so ???

If you look real close, you can see it says -1 stock. It might be a programming error to show it as sold out possibly

Well, thank you all for the heads-up. Those collab-knives look really nice, but I thought I’d see if someone was willing to trade instead of buying...

And that Jiro in BST was held for 48 hours. I sent a PM asking if trades were possible if that sale wouldn't happen, but it did, so that Jiro was no option anymore...

WTB mostly a Watanabe 270 iron-clad gyuto in good to excellent condition. KU preferred, but Migaki is fine, too!
