Withdrawn Martell 240 52100 gyuto

[Barmoley]

The knife is in good condition. It has been re-handled with whiskey barrel oak handle. Not the prettiest installation, but the wood feels really good in the hand and the balance moved toward the tip. The balance is around "ll" in Martell. Knife has been used some a while back, but not recently. It has some patina and light scratches, etc. If you have additional question please ask.

Feel like I don’t see many Martells in this price range, someone’s gonna be super happy with this =D

Great seller, price and if I was going to buy a third Martell this would be it.

Do you know when it was made?

 

[Barmoley]

I bought it at the end of July of 2019 from Dave, so some short time before then.

Love the look of that whiskey barrel oak. What is the spine thickness like?

 

[Barmoley]

I really like the feel and look of the whiskey barrel oak, this is the first time I tried it and it is one of my favorites for the feel. I'll measure the thickness tonight.

A Martell nakiri is one of the most often reached for tools in my toolbox. GLWS!

Took some more pics and measurements. The way I measure over the heel the spine is around 2.5 mm, but it looks to become slightly thicker going down to the edge, around 2.6 mm the way I measure, sort of like () shape a little. No real taper until closer to the tip. Few pictures of the spine and handle install.

Bump.
