240 mm Jikko Honyaki - CLOSED!

[5698k]

Here is a 240mm Jikko Honyaki made by Shiraki. It’s 241mm heel to tip, 53mm tall at the heel, wt. 11.1g. There’s no kanji on the blade, it’s on the tang. The handle is mammoth tooth, made by Chef Duy Pham. The knife retails for over $1200, I paid $250 for the handle. I’m asking $1000.00 conus, international, we’ll work out.

This is such a sexy knife!.

Where is the balance point with the new handle?

Right where my finger is in the last picture. The handle is heavier than normal, but it’s not solid mammoth, so balance is pretty neutral.

Withdrawn. I’m not selling this knife this cheap.

I’m surprised that Shiraki isn’t as well known as he should be.

Good call. Honestly, I would have purchased if I had not just had my funds depleted by Rader.
