I've got this from japan-messer-shop.de(link https://www.japan-messer-shop.de/Ha...i-V2-Kurouchi-Gyuto-24-cm-nicht-rostfrei.html)

I have cut few times with it, no sharpening or touchup, the edge is as sharp when I got it. This is my second Wakui, beast of a performer for the price. But it is just too narrow for me to enjoy it fully and that is why I am letting it go. Slight patina.

I would like to have 200$ shipped to EU, 220$ elsewhere.

Thanks for looking.

Basically a Kochi without Jon's tweaks. Great blade. GLWS!

Is it safe to say that rust won’t be a problem anywhere but on the exposed steel edge?

As long as I’m making my first post on this forum, what does “bump” mean? GLWS? Thanks.

This Wakui has iron cladding too so it will rust if not used or maintain propably. Bump is just a word used when bringing your wts thread up.

bump = I'm entering a new post to rekindle interest in the thread (usually sale/trade). GLWS = good luck with sale.

I have this exact knife. Absolute beast - thin and nimble. The cladding is slightly reactive but nothing to worry about if you remember to wipe it. I've cut a ton of red onions and so far it's just developing a very calm patina.
