Hi everyone,
got this one from the kind Peter L. here:
WTS/WTT Dalman, Antzenberger, Raquin, Spare, Isasmedjan, HSC, Tanaka x Kyuzo
I really would like to love this knife but somehow it isn´t for me and thus will release it.
It oozes quality and tool character with its lovely handle, bity steel and distal taper.
(heel is a bit thicker and quite strong as it seems and the tip really thin)
See photographs in linked thread.
I can of course post photographs of its actual state before making a deal.
(they will look the same though with maybe some blueish patina along the edge.)

As far as I know this is still the original edge from the maker.

Before I potentially sell this within the EU,
I´d like to see if there´s any possible trades out there (within the EU also!), trade value : 425$.
If you have a 180-225mm gyuto/santoku, middleweight,
from Birgersson, Shihan, Kemadi that you might want to trade drop me a PM, post a link or similar.
(feel free to go beyond these makers if your knife is "along these lines")

Thanks and best regards
Jens
PS.: Sorry to everybody in advance if I should not get back to you personally but I want to really keep this inside the EU for now. Customs can be a bxtch! I might consider offers at a later point but chances are slim I guess.

Hi Jens, good luck with trade, I don't have anything I want to trade with this (I'll give you my Birgersson when you pry it from my cold, dead hands :) ), but if you want to sell I would be interested.
 
Not the best of light for photos but i can take more at the weekend in daylight.

Hi Jens, thanks for the pics - lighting is not great as you point out, so went back to the linked WTS post again. I do love the length and profile of this, but I've cooled a bit on the weight and grind, a bit on the chunky side for my taste for a short gyuto. I'd like to withdraw my offer to buy. Sorry about that, and good luck with sell/trade!
