When I bought this knife late last year, it was actually my only gyuto. I always wished it were 20g heavier, but the profile was just perfect. But a few months later I got a 240 Kato WH and a 210 Munetoshi honyaki, what made the Tanaka redundant - and I did not use it since about February. So the time has come for it to go to a new owner.
As mentioned before - I am looking mainly to sell within EU - non EU guys can get the knife new (sale on JNS) for not much more.
The knife was sharpened 3 or 4 times, no thinning, no Kasumi experiments. The knife has no issues.
Cutting edge length: 225 mm
Height at the heel: 55 mm
Weight: 180 g
Price:250€ 210€ plus shipping
A few measurements of the spine thickness:
In front of the handle: 2.92 mm
Above the heel: 2.86 mm
1/2 towards the tip: 2.51
50 mm from the tip: 1.86 mm
20 mm from the tip: 1.35 mm
10 mm from the tip: 0.75 mm
