225x52mm
239g
4.5mm spine out the handle down to .6mm near the tip
Aeb-l stainless steel
Trade value: $900
This will be a hard one to let go but a few more purchases like some lefty single-bevels have crowded some space. I have a Western Ashi Ginga that is a go-to work knife that will be holding the stainless spot.
This is a bulletproof knife. I’ve told a lot of people how good this one feels in hand. It just fits my grip very well. Steel is great too with a nice WH heel and distal taper to match. A true beast and the woodworking on the handle and saya are excellent. Some scuffs on the blade from sharpening on the fly at work. Used a dozen or so times. I’ll attach a video showing the marks.
Looking to trade for now to see whats out there. I’m not sure about my thoughts on selling yet. But wouldn’t mind recouping some $$ on a deal. Most of you know its pretty hard to obtain one of Marko’s knives, let alone a custom like this. So I’m a bit hesitant as I may not come across another.
Trade options may change but I’ll keep it updated below. Feel free to send a PM with any considerations, this list is not absolute.
- Smaller and undersized gyutos/petties/k-tips from Milan (non-twist), Yanick, The Nine. Not really looking for fancy ones or 240’s. Preferably 160-210mm.
- Also, been on a bit of a J-knife run lately as well. Old school Konosukes could also entice.
