SOLD Hinoura 240mm gyuto

[tgfencer]

Up for sale is a Hinoura 240mm gyuto, stainless clad aogomi super. This is an older knife, with the hammered KU finish that is now usually only found on the white steel variant. I think this was purchased from the now defunct Buttermilk Supply. This knife has a beautiful custom handle with a marbled horn ferrule and dark wood handle (not sure of the wood but it looks a bit like cocobolo or ebony/blackwood). The knife also comes with a saya and pin. The grind is excellent, typical of Hinoura, super thin behind the edge and good distal taper. The Hinoura heat treat of aogomi super is great, edge holds forever. Knife has been used only rarely, sharpened once.

Length heel to tip-245mm
Heel height- 52mm
Weight- 228g
64 HRC

Asking- $490 (shipping free in the US)

Looks good ！

This is a Mutsumi Hinoura knife correct? Based on the kanji and the fact that it’s aogami super.

Yeah I totally agree. It got edged out by a 270 yoshikane sld as my one ‘stainless’ option. If I didn’t prefer longer knives, I’d never have put it up for sale.

Ufff...I try to find any reason why NOT to buy this one...I have a Ajikataya Hinoura 240 mm gyuto and its great, but this one is THE ONE which I ever wanted, among Hinoura work...
