Hello Folks,

Looking to sell this fine Mazaki specimen. Bought from Carbon Knife Company, but I just haven't used it, so I'm hoping it can find a good home where someone would enjoy it. I'm sure this would be great for many slicing tasks, especially larger cuts of meat like brisket etc. This might be my favorite kurouchi finish on a knife.

Brand new in box. Never sharpened nor did any test cuts.

270mm length, White #2 core steel with iron cladding. Good distal taper, nice bevels, and all the hallmarks of a Mazaki blade.

Payment via PayPal with G+S and shipping in CONUS.

Asking $400

Hello TCK BST,

This was a recent purchase, but after getting a green handled version from JNI, I am going to share the Kagekiyo love and let this one go.

BNIB. Never used or sharpened, comes with original packaging. White #1 core steel with iron cladding. Paid $629.

Price is $615 (includes CONUS shipping and G+S). Payment via Paypal.

Cheers!

Hey BST Folks,

Just unloaded a Shindo, and now it's time to move on from this lovely Yoshikane (making room for a Kagekiyo). Next to my Shindos, this is probably the best cutter I've ever had. Amazing blade, with just the right amount of heft! Melts through carrots. But alas, the Kagekiyo called me!

Very lightly used, sharpened once on a 6k (so basically just honed it) and stropped. Bought from Chef's Edge for $425. Comes with a nashiji finish and a nice Ebony handle. This thing takes a crazy good edge. SKD seems like it will be pretty stain-free. Anyway, everyone knows what Yoshis are!

$390 CONUS shipping included. PayPal for payment.

Selling my BNIB Shindo.

Bought from CKTG for $195. I would like to ask $205 to cover original cost with shipping. Link here CKTG listing: https://www.chefknivestogo.com/enbl2gy21.html

Never sharpened, never stropped, no cutting other than paper. I'm only selling because I have other Shindos that I prefer to use.

Aogami 2 steel, with soft iron cladding, and sand blasted finish. This one comes with a nice charred oak handle too. Great Shindo grind, and still has protective lacquer on it. Heel height is 52mm.

Thanks for looking!

Hello TCK BST!

I recently bought this very lovely Tetsujin Nakiri from a fellow member here, and it is a beautiful beautiful knife! Originally purchased from Carbon Knife Company, it is BNIB.

The only problem is, while I wanted to try a Tetsujin (and now love it!), Nakiris are my least favorite profile. So I'm tossing it out there to see if maybe someone else who prefers this shape, or maybe someone who has a couple gyutos and wants some variety would be interested in a trade. I'm open to sending some cash to make up the difference in value as well.

I'm open to any of the various Tetsujin gyuto models, including carbon and ginsan core steels. Would prefer a 210mm.

If anyone is interested in a trade, let me know! (I'm also willing to outright buy if you just want to sell).

Like others, I'm just cleaning up a bit and parting with some knives I don't use as often to (hopefully) make room for more knives that I will use :)

A great Masashi knife, but at the end of the day, I'm just not that much of a bunka person, so I'm letting this Kokuen go. It has been used occasionally for meal prep and sharpened twice (takes a very keen edge off my 3k Naniwa Pro stone). Paid $280 with taxes and fees from Knifewear.

-165mm length

-SLD Steel core steel (semi-stainless, never had any issues showing patina)

-Stainless cladding

Payment accepted via PayPal G+S and includes shipping in CONUS.

Price is $240.

Looking to part with my Shindo 210mm gyuto. I've collected a few Shindos now, and for whatever reason I prefer the mid-length ones. This is one has a pretty good grind too.

BNIB. Never stropped or sharpened, never used. Still has lacquer. Paid $205 from CKTG including tax.

Payment accepted via PayPal G+S and includes shipping in CONUS.

Price is $240

Hello all! I'm looking to part with some knives that have mostly never made it into my rotation for various reasons. Most of these have seen very light to no use. All come with original box and packaging. All prices include shipping within CONUS.

Takamura 180mm Gyuto SG2 - Beautiful nimble laser! Used for a few test cuts. Bought from Cutlery and More for $200+fees. Never sharpened. Asking $190.

Yoshikane 210mm Gyuto SLD - Honestly, its the best cutting knife I own. Comes with hair splitting edge. I just don't care for the aesthetics. Test cut a couple onions and carrots. Bought from Chef's Edge for $415+fees. Stropped once. Asking $375.

Mashashi 210mm Gyuto Blue 2 - Lovely knife, cool handle. Test cut a couple onions so it has a small amount of patina starting. Bought from Cleancut for $280+fees. Never sharpened. Asking $250.

Moritaka 150mm Honesuki Aogami Super - Tough knife to find, I was excited when I got it, and then never used it... I hope someone who breaks down more poultry will enjoy this knife! It is unused and never sharpened. Full disclosure, the handle was installed a bit crooked, which you can see in the choil shot. While I haven't used it, it should not impact performance at all. Bought from CKTG for $180+fees. Asking $150.

Shindo 165mm Funayuki Blue 2 - Classic Shindo profile, in a nimble package. I decided to hold on to a different Shindo, but this one is outstanding as well! A couple onion tests were done, but I kept the coating it came with, so no patina formed. Never sharpened. Bought from CKTG for $160+fees. Asking $175.

Feel free to reach out with any questions! I can provide more pics within reason. I will have a few more knifes that I'll be posting soon as well.

Payment will be accepted through Paypal.

I’ve had this knife for a while know, and practiced thinning on it. I forget the maker but it’s a white 1 with iron cladding, 180mm bunka.

I finally had some time to try a little polishing work, and honestly, I’m feeling pretty good about it. Not perfect, but this is only off stones, no finger stones or powder at this point.
