Birgersson 240 Warikomi Gyuto:
LNIB. A rare example of a full sized Birgersson with less heel height. Still plenty of knuckle room, but not crazy tall like many of his blades. I am the first owner on this one, and only used it for a few test cuts. Bjorn's warikomi definitely lives up to its name - the edge is scary sharp. Unfortunately, the low shinogi just isn't for me.

Specs:
230×52
184g

Birch and Bevel Classic Wrought Gyuto by Isasmedjan: SOLD
A wrought clad Apex Ultra beauty from Isasmedjan, under the Birch and Bevel brand. This knife had a few owners before me. The first owner thinned it out of the box to improve the performance, and I gotta hand it to them, this thing cuts incredibly well. Tough enough to feel authoritative, but thin enough for horizontal slices and precise tip work. Really nice handle on this one too, but I just have too many redundant knives at this point, so I'm reluctantly moving it along. If you haven't tried apex ultra steel, it really is a joy to use.

Asking $500 $470 $440 for the Birgersson, shipped and insured in the US. For international, I'll chip in $25 👍

-Shihan AEBL 240ish Gyuto
-Shihan AEBL Petty, any size
-The Nine 240ish Gyuto
-Something nice from RDG

Cheers,
Sky

Reminds me a lot of the MCx BB, such great knives and unique! Someone who doesn't like tall knives should pick this one up!
Exactly! I was bummed to have missed those, so I was thrilled to get this one. I am very glad I got the chance to try his work, the reputation is well earned. Lately though, I'm realizing that my Western blades don't do as much for me as my Japanese lasers.... except my Kipp lol. That one remains at the top
 
Alright, seeing as I'm now competing with the Black Friday Deals, I'll offer this pair for $800. Also open to selling them individually, so definitely reach out if you're interested in only one of them. This will be the final price drop though
