Tanaka Yoshikazu Gyuto 240mm Blue 1 Special

Reason for selling:
Right after I bought it, I had the chance to acquire 3 Hitohira Tanaka Damascus knives (Kambei, Kyuzo, Yohei), as well as a JNS Kato
They somewhat broke the bank. Have to sell it to replenish my ammo.

Main selling points:
(1) Blade polished, bevel flattened, very easy to refinish
(2) Rounded spine and choil,
(3) Handle Upgrade to Burned Octagonal Chestnut
(4) Signed Kiri box
(5) Special Damascus pattern, esp the parallel part around the spine much like that of a single bevel damascus knife

Price:
(1) Price: selling for $675 (10% off the original $740).
(2) Can make it $635 if can replace the Kiri box with a regular box.
(3) I will offer free shipping (costs me ~$50 to ship to CONUS, and $70 to Australia). Shipping out of Hong Kong / Shanghai via UPS, should arrive in most countries in a week
(4) Please DM if you want to discuss prices
