Hi folks!
I haven't been here for some time, principally because I had to stay away in order to stop buying any more knives and stones! So some of you don't know me here and don't remember the last time I had a big sale. On the other hand, some of you I know remember the previous big sale
I have reason now to really pare down what I have on-hand. It's been an interesting experience trying to really decide which are the knives that suit me best. I've said it before and I'll say it again: It's not always the most expensive ones! However, there's so much that's subjective about what feels best to one person versus another, that I know there's a lot here that many of you will find intriguing - and certainly I think they are all excellent knives. These knives, after all, were already on my stage-one short-list!
So on with the sale itself!
There are 66 knives for sale. I'm not going to type everything out, so I'm going to give you a screenshot from my Excel spreadsheet (yep, I had to use Excel to track my collection).
Type, Maker, Length - self-explanatory
Line & Variant - if a maker has different product lines, I noted what particular line this came from, and if it is a sub-type or variant of the main knife type (like mioroshi deba), I indicate it here as well... or just a note about the individual who made the knife
Steel - self-explanatory
Const = construction - what structure or method-of-making
Saya - yes/no
New - brand-new, used once or twice, used 3 maybe 4 times, or used more than that
S = sharpened - have I sharpened the knife before
Asking - my asking price for the knife
Prices are in USD and include Paypal fees - but if you are in Canada, let's use Interac e-transfer. You buy two or more knives, shipping within Canada & the USA is on me. If you're just buying one, please add $5 for shipping. (That's really just for part of shipping. This is more to encourage you to get more than 1 than anything else ) Other countries, let's chat.
Further notes/descriptions for these knives and photos coming later today. I won't do photos of stuff that's brand-spankin' new that looks just like what you'd find from a retailer's website, though.
I've been absent from the knife world and knife community for a while, so if there's something you like but you think my asking price is way out of whack, send me a PM and we can discuss.
