SOLD Takada no Hamono Suiboku 270mm blue 1

[jurdon]

Hey, I have a blue 1 Suiboku 270 mm for sale.
Sharpened once and once stropped on belgian blue. I removed patina with 0.25 micron diamond paste and cloth but it left some, idk how to call it, "embeded patina". I don't want to try anything more aggresive or try uchi and turn it into kasumi so I list it as is. It has micro scratches from wiping all over but they are not visible in daylight.

Comes with stabilised honduran rosewood burl handle (unfortunately epoxied in) and matching saya.
Bought it for 765e + handle and saya around 120e

700e + shipping

I was literally just telling @Sdo like 30 min ago I wanted one of these but I think more 240 sizing. Awesome knife GLWS

A quick update, I decided to go with a slightly more abrasive paste so it now looks like this





and a size comparison with toyama and kaeru 240s

If anyone’s apprehensive about size. Sakai 270’s make for the best 240mm gyuto
