So here's the 270 Mazaki, this one has a bit more belly and a more pronounced convex grind that my other Mazaki's, absolute beast for food release. Very very nice knife, bought over a year ago, only used a few times, sharpened once, I realized that I preferred 240's shortly after buying this so it's been sitting around for a year. Decided to switch out the handle a while back as I was gonna start using it again, but never got around to it, selling it now to cover moving expenses. The handle on this is really really nice, as always, Joe's work is incredible and this feels great to hold. I also have this the same treatment as the Maz 240 I have up for sale, polished the core with a Morihei 9k, cleaned up the bevels with fingerstone/slurry, never thinned. Also may be worth mentioning, this is the stiffest Mazaki I've owned, doesn't flex even slightly. Some signs of use, plus some scratches from the original grind, smudges can just be wiped off with a rag. Please see the measurements below:
Blade length: 276 mm
Blade height at heel: 57 mm
Spine thickness at handle: 5.15 mm
Spine thickness mid blade: 2.35 mm
Weight: 258 g
Bought for $395 + $65 for the custom handle, so selling for $385 + shipping.
I've already been messaged about this one, so I'll be going through PM's in the order they were received. With regards to the Tanaka x Kyuzo with flattened bevels, was gonna put it up this weekend, was polishing yesterday when I found a couple more low spots I wanna finish working out, will aim for next weekend. Also gonna be putting up a Maz nakiri with a custom Jobone handle, and a Shig kasumi 210 mm kamagata usuba.
