Stunner handle.
Weight?

The profile of the blade is a bit like a mix between a gyuto and a santoku.
I would have prefered it to be more a gyuto, with less curve towards the tip.

Thank you
Sorry i forgot to put weight
220g and handle is red malley burr
That ended up with more belly than my normal profile
Im just oiling up 2 more typical gyutos now,k tips with flatter profiles integrals with thuya burr
I'll get pics up tomorrow
