Wow, that's almost gyuto height. My guess is you can use this as gyuto too right? GLWS

 

[Barmoley]

Yep. That was the idea a suji that can be used as one knife to rule them all, works remarkable well too.

So hard to pass this up. Just bad timing. My Marko gyuto is my favorite to use consistently. Glws!

Timing is a nuance, don't fight it. Everyone needs a Marko suji, especially in A2

I imagine the angle of the edge relative to the handle also helps with this. Want it. Can’t buy it.

Damn right handers.

 

[Barmoley]

Tough crowd, let's try a price drop $500 shipped conus now.

Make it a lefty and I'll take it.

Hmmm, I'm thinking...it would probably be easier to convert you to a properly handed person, and I might just have a tool for it, cut here, reattach there....hmmm

It's a fair point. I've actually been working on my weak hand knife skills. My hope is that within the next 12 months that I'm able to be equally good with both hands.

If I didn't already have a Marko suji....

 

[TSF415]

Nevermind

I am the original owner of this suji.

 

[Barmoley]

Friday bump for a cool suji.

 

[Gregmega]

I don’t want this knife. I need it.

 

[vitreous]

I also want this Suji. Can someone give me a quick primer on A2 steel? I cant find much except its "tooling" steel.

 

[Barmoley]

Following is the best resource I can think of.

The summary is

It is more wear resistant than simple carbon steels such as 1095, white, 52100, O1. It is tougher than 1095, 01, white, but not as tough as 52100. It has more corrosion resistance than simple carbon steels and some call it semi stainless. Very good steel the way Marko heat treats it and holds an edge longer than his 52100 or AEB-L.

[vitreous]

So tempted, just wish it was a bit longer.

 

[Barmoley]

Bump for the new week.

 

[vitreous]

Can't believe this is still here to be honest.

 

[thebradleycrew]

People are crazy. This is a stellar knife at a great price.
