WTS Sugimoto 4001

[MrHiggins]

I'm not a cleaver guy after all...

I bought this Sugimoto 4001 from another forum member a few months ago. I paid $250. It didn't work for me, so I sent it for thinning with Harbeer (HSC3 knives). It still doesn't work for me. I'm not a cleaver guy, I guess.

See photos for measurements.

Selling for $230, shipped CONUS.

Hi

What is the steel?

 

[MrHiggins]

I think it's white 2. Iron cladding.

I own this suji #1 and just used it yesterday, its a blast to use since its not too cumbersome..... maybe a good way to get into cleavers if you've been pondering it....

Bump. I'd also entertain trades for larger (180mm) / taller (55mm) nakiri.

Bump-and-drop. $220 shipped CONUS.

If you are a cleaver person, and you have not yet tried a Sugimoto, you are missing out. I have a CM4030 and a No. 6, and I use them constantly. Great cleaver maker.

Weekend bump

Bump for a nice, thin, razor sharp carbon/iron cleaver! Price is now $215 shipped US.

If I had more time/fewer hobbies/less responsibility, I'd keep this and train myself to properly use a cleaver. It's super fun to use, but my cleaver skills need much more development and I simply don't have the time. Someone out there does, though!
