For sale is a stainless clad Watanabe 210mm gyuto. Core steel is Aogami #2. It is a workhorse style blade that is 5mm coming out of the handle and then tapers dramatically from there. The dimensions are:
Blade length - 212mm
Blade height - 51mm
Weight - 169 grams
I attempted to polish the blade and couldn't get it to look how I wanted so just used 1500 grit is a random pattern. It looks semi-polished with a patina that is reminiscent of a knife that has been used for years. The up close pics make it looks more scratched than it actually is in my opinion. New owner can leave as it or have it polished. I think it looks really good in person. It has been sharpened once professionally and used sparingly since. It's very sharp and cuts well. I prefer 240's and my 210 of choice now is my LaSeur. $275 shipped in the continental US.
