I love D chestnut handles, but they seem to be impossible to get. I asked Watanabe if he had any and he told me that the largest he had were for 300 mm Yanagi. These are thinner than what is usually installed on 240 mm gyuto, but I decided to take the chance as I like slimmer handles. I sold suji and gyuto I was going to use them on and now they are just laying here mocking me. They ended up
costing $102 each.

If someone wants them you can have them for $70 each or $130 for both shipped conus.

Handle 1
Weight: 32 g
Length: 145 mm
Height: 22.7 - 25
Width: 17.8 - 20.5

Handle 2
Weight: 30 g
Length: 145 mm
Height: 22.8 - 25.3
Width: 18 - 20.3

Some pics by themselves and next to knives with similar handle sizes. As you see can be used on gyuto, but slim and sized for 300 Yanagi or suji, so keep that in mind.

Bump, with a slight price drop $70 each or $130 for both, before I decide to buy a couple of knives to go with these handles.
