Hado 240mm (230 x 57mm)
Blue #1 core, Damascus clad
Y. Tanaka forged, Maruyama sharpened
Snakewood/Horn Octagon

I picked this up from BST and used it once at home, have not sharpened. I have another custom in the works with similar specs, so I'm letting it go. Tall with gradual taper. Laser like performance with the thin grind. Fit and finish is as you would expect with high end Sakai knives, spine and choil are both rounded/polished. The upgraded handle compliments the knife well while maintaining a comfortable slightly forward balance.

$500 shipped & fully insured within US (international PM for details)

Glad it sold before I even saw it and made stupid decision. Beautiful handle on this one, lucky new owner!
