Marko Tsourkan 220mm WH Gyuto - SOLD!
Marko Tsourkan 220mm WH Gyuto - SOLD!
I’ve decided to offer up my Marko 220mm WH Gyuto into the mix. For the same price as my Toyama Dami listed in a separate thread, you can choose either take the Toyama dami or my prized Marko WH Gyyto, I’ll keep the other Knife.
Marko is shown as the Top knife in the family photo below. I’d like to keep the sale US only for now.
Spec:
220mm edge/51mm heel height, 223g weight;
4.5mm spine out the handle, 4.0 mm over the heel, 0.5mm 1CM from tip.
Beautiful linear taper, and vertical convex grind, just a perfectly executed knife, lightly used but still a perfect execution in every way. Even I had multiple Toyamas, Shig & Kato, & other custom knives, I was still blown away by Marko.

Lol, my 3-time thinned TF Maboroshi -:)
I am still working on it, may need another round of thinning.

Thanks!
The Marko is made with 52100 mono steel, I’ve only seen it from custom knife makers & it’s known for high toughness, very necessary since Marko here has a very thin tip section.
Here is a video about 52100 toughness:

Re: WTS: Marko Tsourkan 220mm WH Gyuto
Same as the Toyama Ion clad Dami listed separately, $550 + shipping, US only.
However, only one of the two is for sale. If the Toyama Dami is sold, Marko will be withdrawn, & Vice versa.

Re: WTS: Marko Tsourkan 220mm WH Gyuto
Yeah with that high heat treatment they are a pain to thin and dial in correctly. I love those knives though and another TF or two is on my list for the future.
