The price value equation is remarkable- I paid $287 for my 270 mm Gyuto in SS (SKD12)
I don’t think you can find Heiji quality at this price- Mazaki included. Exceptionally well made
It is a substantial kitchen room with a significant presence
Only thing is, you have to get them to respond to you and it takes 4 months to receive your knife
I paid 31,500what was the price in JPY? That would make it easier to compare (without getting into exchange rates) and see the price difference if any from 2019 and now.
I'm also curious if there's any difference between SS and the carbon for the same length/type.
Thanks. I paid 26,250 for the 240 in 2019. Let's see if anyone else can share what the prices are now.I paid 31,500

Its shipping and overseas handling fee. The shipping fee will depend on how many items you are ordering since it is based on the weight range. The 2860 JPY shipping fee was only for quote 1 or 2 knives. He didn't change for an additional Paypal fee.shipping and paypal fee

Man every time I see posts on this thread I want to pull the trigger on one. I've never tried one, and something about the look of heijis just calls to me. These photos always make it tough to resist.
Maybe it's time to get that ss 210 suji!
I think it's the default, but, contact him to make sure. If he hasn't contacted you saying it's ready, it's not to late correct it if burnt chestnut isn't the default option.
