WTT gyutos from (mostly) Western makers

[daddy yo yo]

Hello,

I am looking mainly for a flawless (although I doubt that these exist) TF Denka ~240. Red handle would be nice, but I don’t really have a preference, I consider both wa and Western and every handle material and colour.

I have a couple of very nice knives to offer:

- The Edge (Taylor Edgerton) wa-gyuto 238/56/156g Honyaki in 26c3 with burnt oak and horn (here is his WIP)
- Markin wa-gyuto 240/53/200g K390 in stainless clad with snakewood (traded)
- Markin wa-gyuto 234.5/50.5/185g WX15, white acacia
- Markin wa-gyuto 224/48/180g WX15, holm
- „fun chopper“ 200/65 in 1.2519 from German maker suntravel with stabilized pencils
- Shigefusa wa-suji 277/38/185g
- Shigefusa KU wa-santoku 185/52/175g (tipped during shipping)
- Shigefusa KU wa-santoku 173/49/155g
- Shigefusa Kitaeji wa-santoku 168/47/150g
- ZKramer Meiji 10" gyuto

BUMP.

Considering gyutos from Western makers, too. Let me see what you have (PM). ~220-260mm. Not a huge fan of damascus, but wrought iron is smth I do like.

 

[daddy yo yo]

Anyone have a nice Western handled Birgersson? Merion Forge?

I thought I commented here already, but apparently not.

Have a 245mm Isasmedjan Integral Honyaki western if you're interested. I'll drop a link momentarily.

The9 anyone? The small wrought iron one from the last drop was gorgeous…

 

[daddy yo yo]

Bazes with a blade length between 220 and 260?

I can see the attraction
What cuts better than a Denka?

 

[labor of love]

District Cutlery does a really fantastic job of fine tuning Denkas just incase you can’t find what you’re looking for. Check out their IG

I’d consider smth from Karol Karyś, too.
