There are a lot of scratches below the KU. I received this knife like this.

Aside from the scratches, I would say the overall condition of this knife is pretty good.

I'm not 100% sure, but it doesn't seem it has ever been sharpened.

It cuts very well. I bought it to try Gaku's AS before I order a custom from him. After trying this knife, I have decided to proceed with a custom from Gaku.

I was told this knife was originally bought directly from Hitohira's website below. To the best of my knowledge, I am the second owner.

Given the scratches, I'm going to let this one go for cheap. If you don't care much about cosmetics, this is a great bargain for a great knife.

Asking $390, G&S fee and CONUS shipping included. Will cover the first $15 for outside of CONUS.

FYI my reply at 3 mins afterwards was already way too late, so no I didn't get it 😂
