Hello!
Dalman Mass Drop 240 mm with a masur birch handle is a catch and release. I had a WTB thread for this because I wanted to try Dalman’s work. Needless to say it is impeccable. Prior to this knife, I have never tried a honyaki or a S grind, I believe I can understand the appeal but it’s a bit too high brow for my taste.
Prior to my purchase this knife was BNIB, I used it twice, very light meal prep and it has developed a sligh patina. Outside of that, it is in mint condition. I still have the box that it shipped with so that will be included.
Im looking for a trade but I will do a cash deal if I can’t find a suitable offer. Here are my preferences:
Length: 230 - 260
Profile: thin bte, convex, no workhorse more middleweight or workpony. I really enjoy a high performance cutter with decent food release
Finish: ku, nashiji, stone polish/kasumi - not a big fan of mirror polish, more of high end rustic feel
Balance: forward, I like some weight behind the knife when it cuts
Makers: I’m open here but a few that come to mind would be - Isasmedjan, Halcyon
Thanks in advance for looking!
Edit: changed to WTS. Asking $695 shipped in US
Photos below to show the patina that has developed.
