It’s too big. Who really needs 275mm of edge?! Also only 54mm tall. Anything under 55 is unusable obviously. You should all stay far, far away. Please.
@Knot Handcrafted posted he's working on four more of these (similar) for release next month:

I was thinking about it too really nice looking knife..but for western makers I'm really trying to go for the more exotic steel options. A little bored with 52100 and AEBL. I'm already stuck with low alloy carbons from japan, if I get the flexibility of western steel options I wanna see some apex ultra, magna, CPM/Bohler steels...unless you are doing some cool stuff like kasumi and stone polished bevels or wrought, then I'll still go with the low alloy stuff.
Does he only ship to the US?

I bought this knife 90% of the way there like 5 times last night.
Someone must have finally taken it the rest of the way. It is gone now.
Considering the market, Tony builds a heckuva knife for the money.
HSC/// inventories, lots of great knives

I love that blade with the ironwood handle and brass inlays. So beautiful! Too long though
Damn it too slow missed out.
If it helps, if they restock them, I would buy one at their list price and still be happy.
A finding of sorts

What's the big deal with Jiros..
Sadly, with that whopping increase, Jiro has joined the ever growing list of makers that most working cooks, like me, will never be able to afford. I do wish my wages were rising so quickly and suddenly.

Bah. Have been trying to find a Jiro for a while now, looks like I'll stop looking. Becoming pretty expensive.

Should be interesting to see if Jiro’s work still flies off listings instantly

They will still sell rapidly although buyers will be a lot more critical when they assess the knife at the new price point. I predict more BST offerings when the knife fails to meet those higher standards.
