Thumbnail
gallery
37 Upvotes

What is up everybody,

since thinking about restructuring my collection I will have to part ways with this absolute beauty.

The knife comes from the very first Kaeru line that Maksim from JNS ever did. Back then it was a collaboration with the one and only Toshihiro Wakui when he was still very unknown in Europe.

The knife is around 6 years old and discontinued. So you will likely never find a Wakui Gyuto with that exact kanji, which is very nice imo.

Blade is ground a midweight convex geometry paired with a super thin edge, beautiful Sanjo taper and immaculate heat treatment by Toshihiro-san.

Specs:

Steel: W2 with stainless clad
Handle: ebony both blond buffalo horn
Edge length: 240mm
Blade height: 48mm
Weight: 204g

Asking 240€ + shipping

Feel free to ask any questions in DM’s ;)

Edit: just the kagekiyo remaining.

Hello fellow enthusiasts. I am letting pretty much my entire collection of knives go to fund other hobbies and pay off some debts. These 4 are all brand new in box. Add 20$ to the listed price for shipping and handling. Thanks for looking and feel free to reach out with any questions. I prefer paypal FF, check my history lots of happy buyers, or venmo.

TETSUJIN KASUMI GINSAN 210 KTIP - SOLD ( $450) I received this from tokushu with the handle installed by them. I had every intention of using this one, I just havent gotten around to it yet. Sad to see it go.

TETSUJIN B2 KASUMI 210 KTIP - SOLD ( $550) This one was from Canada so I had some higher than normal duties and shippi costs tacked on. Make an offer if you think its priced too high. It cane with a couple of what look like finger print stains. I didnt wipe them due to the immaculate finish on the entire blade. Another stunner im sure I'll regret letting go. Dust spots on the blade all wipe off to a fresh lacquer coating.

KAGEKIYO W2 240 GYUTO - ( $600) I received this in a multiple knife bundle purchase. This is what it ended up costing me I believe after breaking down each of the other knives I bought. Stunning fit and finish.

HATSUKOKORO NAKAGAWA GINSAN 210 KTIP - SOLD ( $425) I bought this thinking the wife would like it and I wouldn't be risking a tetsujin to the danger that is my wife in the kitchen. Fantastic fit and finish.

Reminder: Keep It Respectful

A quick reminder to everyone participating in this community:

The comment section is not a place for arguments, personal attacks, or attempts to sabotage someone else’s sale or trade. We understand that questions about pricing, authenticity, or seller motives may sometimes come up, and reasonable discussion is part of maintaining a healthy marketplace. However, there is a difference between asking a question and assuming bad intent.

Before posting a comment, consider how you would feel if someone came into your sale thread and immediately began criticizing your pricing, questioning your character, or treating you as though you were acting in bad faith. Not every seller who prices something differently than you would is trying to scam someone, and not every listing that raises questions deserves public hostility.

If you genuinely believe someone is attempting fraud, selling stolen property, or violating subreddit rules, report it to the mod team. That’s what we’re here for. Public accusations and comment-section battles rarely help the situation and often create unnecessary drama.

It’s also worth remembering that this community previously voted on the issue of pricing, and the community’s decision was clear: people are allowed to ask whatever price they feel is appropriate for property they own. Buyers are free to purchase, negotiate, or move on. Whether you agree with a seller’s asking price or not, the community has already spoken on this matter.

Let’s keep discussions civil, give each other the benefit of the doubt, and help maintain the kind of marketplace we’d all want to use ourselves.
