Purchased from Sugi at the end of March, 2023, a nicely proportioned knife from Kyohei Shindo, whose knives are known for being quite thin behind the edge without seeming fragile.
I used it regularly for awhile, then put it away for long enough that maybe it’s time to sell it.
Sharpened as needed, four to five times on 2K - 6K, actually all touch-ups. No other maintenance done except giving it a slight radius at the heel.
A great-cutting, good looking knife in great shape. Paypal and CONUS (only) shipping included.
The only issue is that the red cardboard insert, which cradles it in the box, is slightly tired.
Thanks for looking.
