I have a local shop that stocks these and the F&F is wonderful and the grinds are terrific. Surprised I do t see more of them around here

The knife is still around — dropped to 450 USD

That is gorgeous….. GLWS. Literally green with envy

SMH. This is a top-tier knife. If it wasn't so similar to the Kagekiyo I sold I'd snatch it up. GLWS!!!

why is this still here and the tetsujin gone. I don't understand. Maybe put Morihoro hamono on description? My money went to a kagekiyo so can't pick this up

 

[fortheloveofmoar]

If it’s still here tomorrow might have to buy this

 

[Rob McKenna]

Holy cow.

I think people are put off by the angled choil. It's different, but not bad. This is an incredible deal. Here is what they go for...

I should have posted this earlier. The knife was exactly as described and Dan was a pleasure to deal with. I would happily buy from him again!
