WTS/WTT: Dalman, DT, Shig, Marko

Post by e.chou »

Hi CKTG!

So, I seem to have gotten myself into quite the predicament... I have totally overspent my knife budget on some new customs! :lol: :oops: (I'll post some pics later.) With a Kippington, Dalman, and Rader on the way, I have to let go of a few things in my collection. I will also consider trades if you are interested.

1. Robin Dalman 210 AEB-L gyuto - SOLD!

This 210 AEB-L gyuto sports a masur birch handle treated with a light coat of tru-oil, with a reindeer antler ferrule, and comes in Robin's "standard" grind. This was a short-lived grind he used while transitioning between his classic s-grind and his newer triple concave grind. Maybe only one or two batches were made. It has nice distal taper and Robin's awesome heat-treat on AEB-L. Light use, but unsharpened.

Length: 207mm (I measured in a straight line from heel to tip, so the actual cutting length is slightly longer)
Height: 49mm
Weight: 172g

2. Marko Tsourkan 210 AEB-L gyuto - $325

I picked this one up on the forum second-hand a few years ago, but ended up not using it so much. Maybe only one or two light prep sessions on some veggies. It is a little shorter, but very svelte and comfortable in hand. Sports a cascara handle with some really pretty chatoyancy in the wood. It does have a tiny bit of handle wear and tear that was not disclosed to me when I purchased it, and for that reason, I am discounting it a bit below what I paid originally.

Length: 207mm
Height: 46mm
Weight: 176g

3. Shigefusa Kitaeji 255mm Yanagiba BNIB - $1150

What's there to say about this? A picture is worth 1000 words :D Ho wood handle and buffalo horn ferrule, with particularly nice kanji and damascus pattern (IMO).

4. Devin Thomas ITK 210mm AEB-L gyuto - $650

This one is also second-hand, but was polished up a bit right before I purchased it. A great example of Hoss's work, with his usual excellent heat treatment on AEB-L - if I didn't have some more exotic DTs I wouldn't be inclined to let this go. I'm not exactly sure what the handle material is, possible cocobolo or bocote. Comes with a saya, that I believe is made of walnut.

Length: 210mm
Height: I want to say 52mm, but don't quote me on that. I took measurements but I lost my notes :lol: If you are interested, pm me and I can take more detailed measurements
Weight: Per above

That's it for now! I have a few others I will try to release after I can take some pictures and measurements. Thanks for looking!

If that Dalman comes off of hold without the person picking it up, I'll buy it.

Dalman is sold and soon on its way to a new home! Sad to see it go :( but I'm sure the new owner will really enjoy it :D

As an aside, if there are any mods out there, is there a way to edit my original post (to update sale status, etc.)? I was initially able to edit, but it seems to be locked in now...
