Ok so this knife is a lot of fun, but it is really really for those that like their knives to be heavy. It is an interesting grind from Mert. He has compressed the S grind which makes it look and feel almost like a bulb. The knife feels great in hand and performs well, but it is truly very heavy for my wrists.

I have used this for a few meal preps and sharpened once on a cerax 1000. Has stable patina by the tip. Comes with a mono sheoak handle and a pouch from Mert

Edge length: 246mm
Height at heel: 56.4 mm
spine thickness at heel: 5.6 mm
Mid: 3.7 mm
2cm from tip: 1.1mm
Weight: 302gm
Steel: 52100 mono
Handle: Sheoak
Storage: Tansu pouch

I paid $530 for this. I am looking for $430 shipped CONUS

Please ask for more pics and videos!

Bumping this one up!

I know with western knives, every piece is unique and can be hard to judge based on just pictures, so if anyone is on the edge with this one, im happy to provide cutting videos

Also, I hate the idea of having such nice pieces as drawer queens, so the listing price is open for discussion if you're really wanting to try this one!
