WTS: Makoto W2 Damascus 210 and 240 gyuto

[cjdilts]

So I'm trying to get some funds together to try a Mazaki and have these guys sitting around. Great knives but not really a fan of the profiles. They are are not flat enough for me and I think that i've decided I dont like curvy knives. So for your consideration I have, as stated, a couple Makotos for sale.
The 210 was purchased new and has been sharpened once full progression, but only used a total of about 20 minutes on onions and a few tomatoes. Has the standard ho wood and pakka wood. Has patina from what use it has seen, but can be removed.
Height: 46mm
Length: 213mm
The 240 was purchased used from Bensbites in April. Comes with one of his custom handles. I'll try and post the woods used if I can confirm. Beautiful handle and super comfy. When it was listed Bensbites said there was a crack at the ferrule but I think he repaired it really well. Its small and unnoticeable. Never sharpened, just stropped and used during maybe 2 prep sessions to bang out some veg and stored at home after that.
Height: 52mm
Length: 242mm
Steve has great videos on the knives if you haven't seen them.
I would like to get
$150 for the 240
$70 for the 210
If buying both I will drop to $200
PayPal and shipping included. Don't have any experience with international so we'll deal with that if needed.

Ok, I have been busy all day, or I would have tried to help out with info on the 240.

The handle was made from African Blackwood ferrule and endcap, Maple spacer, and walnut body. This was one of my rounded profile handles.

I hope that helps.

Thanks Bensbites. That's super helpful as my cell doesn't do photos well. Love the handle just becoming somewhat particular in my profiles. Once again everyone, beautiful handle and unique shape that's really comfortable.
