Tetsujin Kasumi Blue#2 180mm Nakiri. Khii laurel handle(from a konosuke MM). Picked this up on kkf last year, here is the original posting.
Cutting edge: 170mm
Blade length: 185mm
Total length: 325mm
Weight: 184g
Heel height: 51mm
Current pics are attached.
Knife has been used for several meals and sharpened once. Has some patina and some light scratches from things like apple seeds. I can clean up the patina if you'd prefer.
I'd previously tried 2 other nakiri's and ultimately decided they didn't suit me, but thought it was just the 2 examples I had. Since I am particularly fond of my 240 tetsujin, I figured this should be the nakiri I was looking for. Honestly though, I just don't think I like this style of knife. Paid $300+shipping, looking for $250, shipped. Could be a great pickup for ARM.
Cheers,
