Up for sale, this 285 mm Yanagi in AEBL at 63 rockwell hardness.
Heel height is at just under 33mm.
Spine at heel is 2.86 mm
OAL 433 mm
The handle would be considered on the thicker side at about 1 inch height, and just under 1 inch width. Standard tapered octagon configuration with silver ingot spacer.
The price is being set to reflect the state of this knife, a great opportunity I think for someone who will sharpen and use this blade. I have way too many hours in this, but it has been a great experience in the making.
The edge is a single bevel grind with urasuki and is incredibly thin.
This one is being sold as a prototype study. It seems I do not have the appropriate water stones to complete the sharpening correctly, so it is sold as is and will need the sharpening completed.
The fit and finish isn't perfection, but is is quite nice. There are a few very minor scratches on the urasuki from the stones.
Please let me know if you have additional questions about the edge or knife in general.
Price $175.00 plus shipping.
Guarantee: If this knife fails in its intended purpose based on design and geometry I will give a refund. I believe it will be an excellent slicer.
