I'll have to get back to you on this one, left work for the day. I measured it but can't seem to remember the exact measurement coming out the spine.

Where is the balance point? The handle is beautiful, I guess it helps balance out the (WH) blade better than ho-wood...

What was the HRC on this?

I can put a picture of it tomorrow when I get back to my office I'll put it on a cork to balance it out. From my memory it's right where the Kanji begins. It's actually very light. I haven't tried other Mazakis with ho wood handles only the K&S versions. The handle is very nice and very comfortable in hand.

What was the HRC on this?

@EricEricEric. Looking back at the K&S Sydney site it has it spec'd out at 63-65

Any new people joining the board this is a really good buy that I would recommend right here.

If I didnt own Mazaki blue 2 I would've bought this ages ago. You won't get a better taper from any other Japanese maker and Mazaki HTs are amazing.

I really like this profile but import to Germany would kill me. GLWS

I have the 210 version of this knife and love it! Great distal taper and profile, good edge retention and develops a nice patina. Good deal!

Sold, thanks KKF!
