SOLD Jiro 548

[cadderly]

Hi all,

I picked this up as a gift for my wife, but she decided she wanted something sparkly instead . This has a beautiful balance to it and feels great in hand.

Specs are a really interesting with length of 217, and height of 60. I keep picking it up to admire, but just haven't been able to rationalize keeping it for myself. It's boxed, in new condition (no use, stropping or sharpening).

$1200 shipped in US, PP inclusive
