Watanabe Pro 240 Gyuto

[TimH]

For your consideration is a Watanabe Pro 240 with Mike Henry handle. It was purchased from here:

It has since been thinned and refinished by Jon Broida. The cosmetic issues mentioned by Len were resolved, but it developed a couple rust spots during shipping back from Jon. These left some minor pitting. I've priced the knife accordingly at $285 shipped ConUS/PPaled (what I paid).

Pics coming in a few hours.

A couple of folks have PM'ed with interest, pending pics. I'm going to give them first shot. Here are a few:

I should also mention that Jon's refinishing seemed to wear the kanji down a bit. It appears visible but worn.
