SOLD /WTS - Joel Black - Damascus Clad Apex Ultra Gyuto + Kogatana Set

[cwk.v]

Finally thinking that I will let this Joel Black Set go.

Originally purchased from Modern Cooking, it has seen a minimal amount of use at home. I absolutely adore all of Joel's work and have a small collection that gets used more regularly than this knife. At this time, I think it is time to find the knives a new home.

Currently $1200 into this knife after shipping to the US, would like to recoup those funds and will sell for $1050 --> $1000 --> $950 --> $900

Kogatana is brand new
Gyuto is lightly used - It was recently re-etched (now shows the damascus in more prominently than before) and then very lightly polished with kasumi powder in order to remove the damascus etch off the bevels.
Included Saya
