Konosuke ebony 330 Sakimaru

This is a custom Konosuke Fujiyama series 330mm sakimaru takobiki in blue#1 steel. It has an ebony handle with a silver spacer. I got this direct from Konosuke about 4 years ago, and it is a great performer - easy to wield, not too heavy, and not too thin. It is one of my favorite sashimi knives I've used (and those who know me know I've had a lot). No chips and straight as an arrow. There is some patina on the blade from use. Comes with saya and original box. A similarly spec'd sakimaru would run over $700 today.

$475 shipped CONUS

Oh. My. God.

I knew better than to click on this link when I saw it was bishamon's. Always amazing!

that's amazing. but no! I already spent my xmas money!

What an incredible looking knife.

Had one like this for a short time and sold it for reasons I am not sure about myself a this time. Definitely the nicest slicer I have ever owned, a great offer!

Sushi? Man that thing is a home defense system. I wanna buy it just in case I ever need to go Kill Bill on would-be intruders.

Must . . . resist . . . temptation . . .

Seriously - that knife is so cool I'd whip it out just to cut my sandwiches. :lol2: :cool2:

Found a $20 bill on the street, so I'll pass on the savings.

$450 shipped CONUS. I know a lot of y'all would love using this one, haha.

Man, what a dilemma--this is a STEAL, but I know that I couldn't put it to the use it deserves. Honestly I thought this would be gone within 15 minutes of appearing. Someone buy this--if it hits $400, I'm not going to be able to resist.

^Don't worry, it isn't going down in price anymore, lol.

Bizarrely, that is a huge relief to hear!

Thanks for "falling on the sword" so to speak. Everyone was getting a little antsy.

sold

Oh baby I like this one !!:shocked3:

That is one bad boy knife. Would look great with my 240 takeda with a silver spacer. Hope this one gets resold within KKF.

It already has been

I got excited thinking this was back up for sale. At least I didn't miss it a second time.

Hope it gets resold to ME

Holy sword. I like :biggrin:

I'm not selling this guy anytime soon but I will be making an ebony saya for it, I'll put up some photos when that day comes. It's a beauty of a knife and light and nimble for it's size, really just expertly made and fantastically balanced.

If anything changes i would love to hear from you.
