Hello,
it took me some time to take this decision, but I somehow found myself with 3 knives of very comparable blade length, so I have decided to thin the herd and since I also have a kurouchi funayuki from Carter, I decided to sell the Muteki.
The knife:
This is one of the Muteki knives Carter brought recently that is made by his apprentices under his watch. It has white steel #1 core clad with stainless steel.
Dimensions:
- heel to tip: 172 mm
- height at the heel: 41 mm
- width of spine at heel: 2.1 mm
- width of spine at middle: 1.7 mm
- width of spine 1cm from the tip: 1.0 mm
- weight: 147 g
- handle: Ironwood
Condition:
I have used the knife on occasion and sharpened 2 or 3 times (no thinning though). The blade show some minor usage marks (slight patina) and a few scratches from sharpening (mostly on the left side). The handle has nice smooth finish. I have used board butter regularly. The knife in total is in very good condition.
Price:
$220 (200) + shipping.
Shipping:
The knife will be shipped from Germany, so no additional taxes should be applied by local customs for EU buyers.
Insured shipping:
- within Germnay: 7
- within EU: 14
- the rest of the world: 16 - 42 depending on your location, please ask for exact quote.
Payment:
Money transfer or PayPal.
Please note:
- If you have any questions, just reply to this thread.
- When you write me a PM please specify the knife - I am selling multiple items at the moment
