Rader 240 gyuto

Alright guys... I listed this one a couple months ago. Things fell threw and I decided to keep it. Now its back up. I am asking for $600 (this covers shipping and paypal). 52100 steel.... I'm sure I will regret this but I need to do it. This knife was made by Michael as an "ITK series". I believe only 5 or 10 were made. It does not have his MS stamp on it because it was not a custom and I believe his wife helped a little with the handles if I am not mistaken......

This is the knife Masamoto ks owners should be fantasizing about.

iS that a forced patina or a dammy pattern??

It is the original forced patina that Michael Rader put on them before selling. It has never been taken off.

The Rader ITK-type knives I saw had a mustard patina (I think that's what his wife helped with.)

Any knife not scrubbed in months should go, and this is a beauty. GLWS!

Thats the most beautiful Rader ive ever seen :O (Yes, im a KS junkie )

Wow, nice knife. I don't have that kind of money available now, but it's tempting! GLWS

Damn you Rick! You already have all the best toys!

That is a gorgeous knife! If I didn't have 3 birthdays and Christmas coming up I'd be batting my eyelashes pretty heavily at the hubby for this lol. GLWS

This knife is SPF...

Thanks!

Congrats to the buyer and seller. A beautiful blade, indeed.

This is making me want my Rader to be made so badly

Knife came in today in perfect condition. Thanks Chuck for excellent packing and shipping. Top notch! The pictures dont really do this knife any justice. It will certainly get used in my kitchen.
