Thanks...the Akatsuki that James has in stock is white 2, but his blue 2 was sold for $450 while available, so it’s still better deal from a better retailer. I’ll wait. It’s just interesting to see that Bernal is selling the same Jikko for $678. Don’t know how they compete like that...you could save quite abit of money and buy the akatsuki from James, about the same thing. but only 210mm is instock.

Bernal blue 2 version is a little different. It’s longer and taller.Thanks...the Akatsuki that James has in stock is white 2, but his blue 2 was sold for $450 while available, so it’s still better deal from a better retailer. I’ll wait.

The Bernal one looks identical to the one I posted with price of $499. I compared the measurements and weight and they look similar. And both look like the blue 2 one on Jikko’s official website. I think they might be just original line without any retailer customization.Bernal blue 2 version is a little different. It’s longer and taller.
I wouldn’t buy Jikko unless you know who the sharpener is.
Is there measurments anywhere for the CM Jikko? Im assuming its normal sakai meaurements (230mm)...the bernal one is more like a true 240mm gyuto.The Bernal one looks identical to the one I posted with price of $499.

The 2nd description picture of the CM Jikko shows all the measurements. 240 mm from heel to tip and 400 mm total. 254 gram like the Bernal one (252g).Is there measurments anywhere for the CM Jikko? Im assuming its normal sakai meaurements (230mm)...the bernal one is more like a true 240mm gyuto.
That’s exactly what I thought. Can’t trust CM much...Damn! Still don’t trust CM haha. Might have to find their customer service department.
I have one similar and one on order and I entered, just saying

Thats quite a departure from the usual Japanese Yo handle. Style like that is reminiscent of a Catcheside and to a lesser extent a Tansu. Some interesting stuff coming out of Japan recently.Bunch of Gesshin Ittetsu honyaki up on JKI, including some ironwood handled Westerns.

I'm quite curious about the 195mm one. That's an unusual size for a gyuto. That can be a cute little friend to my odd 225mm Kochi V2
