SOLD Discount Ikeda Honyaki (240) and Sukenari (270)

[captaincaed]

These were posted previously, if they look familiar, with further price drops. They have not been used since the original post, and photos are of current condition.
I combined houses, don't have room for as many knives as I used to.
Since Bernal and Carbon ran out of Ikeda's honyaki knives, I think Epic Edge is the only game in town I know of now. They've since raised prices substantially.

I should mention, but are ground symmetrical as far as I can tell, but I'm a righty.

Jesus that’s a hell of a deal, I would totally buy this right now but I already committed to another purchase. I’ve never owned a honyaki but plan on it in my next couple knife buys, I’m upset that I’m missing out on this...

somebody buy this before I turn this knife into an excuse to leave me!

 

[captaincaed]

Bump $600

 

[valgard]

*** is going on here? 600 bucks of an Ikeda honyaki and still here?

 

[NO ChoP!]

Super pumped about the Sukenari! I have an Ikeda, and the honyaki is one of my unicorns. I wish I could scrape together the scratch...

This better sell asap!!!!

Thank god.

 

[captaincaed]

Haha! I guess that was the magic price. Thanks for the interest, getting to requests in order.
This community has been great to me, glad I can make someone out there happy during lean times.

Also, if anyone is interested in a Mario, I've got a beast coming up soon. Reapplying another layer of Tru oil to the saya, then it'll be up here.
