WTS Yoshida Hamono ZDP-189 240mm Kiritsuke

[mariano_r]

I’m in search for a new home for this knife. Bought in April 2021 with a rosewood handle and leather sheath. Custom built for $500. Asking $425 (includes shipping in US)

Blade length: 233 mm
Height: 52 mm
Width: 2.5mm (roughly)
Weight: 236 g

It’s my first japanese knife and sadly it’s not what I was looking for. The knife is in excellent condition. It was used by me, a professional cook. Handled it with a gentle hand though I have cooked with it at home since April. Sharpened twice using the edge pro with diamond stones.

if anyone can provide this handmade blade with a wonderful life, please DM me.

So what happened you ask? Well, my ignorant and uneducated ass went and wrapped itself all over the ZDP-189 craze. My love at first sight was a Hastukokoro Inazuma Kiritsuke. I opted out because I prefer tall knives. Seeing as to how I’m a newbie Japanese enthusiast, albeit a potential steelaholic, I ran into our friends oversees and became obsessed with this knife and Yoshida Hamono.

More recently Im looking into a Takeda Nas 240 gyotu and possibly, after I sell my first born, the Nigara Hamono Anmon 240mm gyotu.

please support my knife addiction by taking this off my hands so I can order the next knife that I think will change my life…

Do you have measurements? Edge lenght, height at the heel, spine thickness, weight and balance point could be usefull. Good luck with the sale.
