[enrico]

Hello, looking to sell this middle weight gyuto.

230mm x 52mm

3mm out the spine, tapers quite thin at the tip

206 grams


Used a handful of times at work. Has been sharpened but not thinned. Takes a killer edge and is a joy to use on the stones. Comes in original box.

It's from Carbon Knife Co (bought 2nd hand brand new though)

Very interesting! How reactive is it?

On par with most reactive knives I’ve used. A bit more reactive that my Takada no Hamono but that has more to do with the Takada not being very reactive so far.

Be patient!

I held this in a shop recently, really attractive knife, long santoku style, nice high blade, some authority to it. If it were EU I would have bought it of you the minute you posted it, especially for this price.

Thanks for the kind words! I was thinking to withdraw it more-so to make it work in my rotation. Maybe practice some Kasumi finishes.
