is it a custom watanabe to your specs through an order? I just got a 210 mm Wat nakiri 60 mm heel at 307 gym and I thought that was big - but it’s a baby compared to this behemoth!

Any more pics?
Heavy like a deba?
Here are some more photos as requested. This was not a custom but one that was on his sight, and it is ironclad. I knew it was tall when I ordered it but was not expecting it to be more than double the weight as my other 240's. Here are the specs from the sight.
Kurouchi Gyuto knife 255mm: wide blade
Total length 420mm, blade 255mm, width 64mm, thickness 4.8-2.7mm, double
bevel, material iron clad blue #2.
D-shaped Ho wood handle with horn hilt.

Thats a thicc blade. Virtually no DT all the way to the tip. No wonder it weighs 377g

Yoshimune 240mm. Nice and tall, 53mm. I love this knife. I already had a 210mm gyuto and regretted not getting the 240. Came up second hand at a price I couldn't refuse. Took it to work the last few days & really gave it a workout. Great all around performer.

I'm not usually a fan of how Kato's look, but the fancy pants on this one really are great. Is that a desert ironwood handle and saya? Looks kinda like Cody Paul's work, really sharp. Whoever made those, chapeau!
I cant get my eyes away from it...Stopped browsing the forum, just to come back again and enjoy it.
I’ve been eyeing these. Please hit me up with your thoughts, would love to hear more about this one. They look amazing
that's what sea said
Ok, so now I have no idea how they measure in Sakai. Shouldn’t this be a 300 or something?

New to me Bloodroot Western Integral (225x53) with amboyna burl handle. Crazy impressed by the craftsmanship of this knife!
Awesome score. I came soooo damn close to on this one. Just bad timing.

Thank you! Very happy with it and what an upgrade over my old Wusthof Classic knives. Will hopefully pass this one down to my son one day.
Enjoy that Bloodroot! Going from German knives to that would be one hell of a difference!

It has been a while since I was here or bought a knife. Sharing the new gorgeous steak knife set we just got from the amazing Tobbe Lundström in Sweden. Cannot wait to receive them and use them at home
The one on the right looks fantastic, it must be a joy to use, nimble and fast. Love it!

Those look like fire. I always liked the Primus' look, I don't know why I never gave it a go.
Thanks guys...They are lasers. Big smile...
@Midsummer Can you tell us the measurements of the right blade, please?
