How does it feel using it in a pinch grip? Does it feel natural & comfortable? Feels pretty good, I can rest my middle finger on the bolster for finger grip comfortably. But the blade is very short as a 210, only 202mm so I don’t do finger grip, I use hammer grip on the handle & pinch on th...

Thanks Mark, wouldn’t have happened without your special deal, much appreciated!

Finished with light etching of bolster:

I am posting this as Mark asked me to show him the outcome. Mark was very kind to gave me a special deal on the blade for this project, much appreciated. It’s about 80% done. The bolster is Damascus Made from pieces that I cut off from my dammy Axe. It still needs etching to bring out the bolster pa...

Withdrawn

Bump

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 If the Toyama Dami is sold, Marko will be withdrawn, & Vice versa.

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: https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=emb_title&time_continue=271&...

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

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 k...

Picked up this Gem during JNS April sale, amazing cutter, identical performance to my Ion clad Toyama but with much more style while cutting. Super duper cutter, out cuts my Shig Kasumi & looks as cool as Ketaji with the dami in lite finish but plenty pattern contrast. Lightly used, slight natur...
