I will provide the serial number as well. Knife retails for USD 620 and i am selling this brand spanking new knife for USD500 including shipping
 
Interesting you sell it before having gotten it. Since they are too different I would need more pictures and a choil shot.
Theoretically could you send it in Germany, so I don't have to pay taxes?

Hi,

I got 2 Jiro by accident. I am getting a 240 mm. But the 210 they sent by sea by mistake so they send me the 240 As well

since I have 2, and I only need 1, I am selling the 210.

germany shipping is no problem as I am in Basel - I can drive it over:) depending on where you are.

thanks
 
If you compare both Jiros, the one from Protooling OP bought and hitohiras #61, the specs fit but it's different picture when you look the lamination line and choil shot. So which photos did protooling use?

The one on Protooling is #11. They prob just showed a 'generic' 210 they had in their inventory that sold earlier. If the knife truly is #61, go by the specs and details on the Hitohira site for #61.
 
@JayS20 is correct - it was sold within minutes of posting - I had about 15 buyers lined up! I forgot to update - but sold many knives this weekend - so was updating. How do I change WTS to SOLD in the posting?
