I can measure it tonight, it feels more lighter and thinner, taller overall than the other W2 Yoshikane I had long time ago.Really like the look of this one. How are the weight and the spine width, if you don't mind me asking?

Not a custom, just got it from his web-site a few weeks agoMarius has a quite stunning style.
Is this a custom or is it second hand you've got there?
so you're the one who got this of cktg lolThese pictures suck but...
Konosuke B#2 Damascus FM Fujiyama 240mm Gyuto
Glad he got it, because I was waiting to spend $ I don't have...so you're the one who got this of cktg lol
Dang, the taper on this thing must be pretty impressive to only be 222g. That choil shot makes it look thiiicccc. Looks like a beast.My new workhorse!

This is my dream knife. I love the profile. Feels more European than Japanese which is what I am used to. I originally wanted a Mazaki, but they are difficult to get in Canada, and since he changed the profile, I didn’t think it was worth ordering internationally. I consider this an upgrade to the Mazaki with the steel type anyway.
My new workhorse!

I am happy with the handle for now, but thank you for the recommendation.Looks cool. If you dislike the handle I recommend replacing it with a custom one by Jody Hale/ Pie Cutlery. I had him make an oversized, dyed burl, live edge handle to my specific measurements and it's incredible. Like putting on shoes that fit for the first time... easy to find him on Instagram.
She is thicc. Very beastly. It has minimal distal taper, but the wide bevel grind is nice, making it thin near the tip.Dang, the taper on this thing must be pretty impressive to only be 222g. That choil shot makes it look thiiicccc. Looks like a beast.
Iron clad. Getting some patina already. I bought it from thecooksedge.com It is the only place I have seen a Y.Tanaka with AS steel.That looks amazing. Is it iron or stainless clad? Where did you get it?
Thank you. I think so too.damn that’s hoooot
I often don't like the way TF Sujihiki profiles look, but this looks just about perfect.Hi Everyone. This arrived yesterday. 270mm Teruyasu Fujiwara Denka Sujihiki. Actual: 274mm x 42mm. Weight: 293gm. An absolute beast. Truly a treasured family sword.

I had a mazaki then sold it in favor of a Y Tanaka and have zero regrets. Mine is a lighter rendition though... so I’m kinda jealous of the weight yours is. His heat treat is just insanely good.My new workhorse!

Have you tried it? mine just came an hour ago, not your mamas Fujiyama, tall thin beast, way different that my previous Fugi's!Konosuke 270 FM Blue 2
I have gotten a bunch of other stuff lately but haven't posted it up. This thing came so thin behind the edge, won't need to thin this down for a long time. Something has to go now to make room.View attachment 116894
