SOLD Kaneshige Ginsan 270mm Ai-Deba

[heldentenor]

Selling a knife that I bought ought of curiosity but have never used. I’m the second owner after buying this from @Chuckles many, many years ago.

Kaneshige Ginsan Ai-Deba 270mm.

Never sharpened by me, but I did polish the bevel with a bit of uchigomori fingerstone to bring out a little bit of contrast.

Dimensions:
Length at edge: 264mm
Height at heel: 57mm
Width of spine at heel: 7mm (!)
Weight: My digital scale broke, but this is massive—easily in excess of 400g.

I want this thing to find its way into the hands of someone who will use it.

$125 shipped in the US. No international on this one, given the price and the weight’s impact on shipping costs.

Good. I felt compelled to buy this for no good reason.

Aaarghh! I feel compelled to buy this for very good reasons! Let me know if the sale falls through and other potential interested buyers who got here first decide not to pursue!
