Teruyasu Fujiwara (Morihei Hisamoto) 214x50mm
Iron Clad White#1
Custom Koa Handle with G10 Liner and hidden brass pins

Ideally looking for a Shihan stainless/semi-stainless 230-240mm, but open to other offers as well.

I've been on the fence about this for months. Here's my custom redone TF from the ground up. Easily 40+ hours of work into it. You can see some of my progress in a separate thread I created.

https://www.kitchenknifeforums.com/threads/a-small-tf-project-round-2.61030/

Some of the work on the knife includes:
  • Full regrind on bench stones to a full convex
  • Natural stone kasumi
  • Custom S-choil, rounded and polished
  • Fully rounded and polished spine
  • Custom K&G stabilized Koa handle with hidden pins

Hard to put a value on this one. Let's say $675 $600 $535 trade value.
