SOLD $425 - Simon Maillet 230mm full tang kasumi gyuto with saya

[thebradleycrew]

I've enjoyed this knife from Simon Maillet and think someone here will enjoy it too. Simple, clean, classic knife with all the details dialed. White 1 core, XC15 iron cladding, forged taper and tapered tang. Full kasumi finish and ready for stones if you are so inclined. This was originally purchased from Modern Cooking. I am second owner and got it on BST. Smooth cutting and really, really nicely done White 1 core, stable patina. Touches up fast, super crisp. Includes perfectly fit saya. Nice combination.

Asking $575 CONUS, $600 Int'l.

Where is the balance point?

Sorry for the slower reponse, @fortheloveofmoar - I missed this question. See the attached photo. It's maybe 2cm forward of the choil. Nice pinch grip position, slightly blade forward.

Man this is a lot of work for the asking price, hand laminated steel, distal tapers going both ways, stone ready bevels, dream specs, I wish I didn’t have so many customs cooking

the saya itself is at least $80-$100

Hi, it's your wife. I think you need a new gyuto to look at for the upcoming sleepless nights.

Well, if @fortheloveofmoar is buying it on V-day, $400.

Someone buys this…Huge bargain. Simon publishes his price publicly. This is the 2023 price list (think 2024 is even higher). This knife would cost a lot more directly from him.
