Every day carry knives…AKA pocket knives
Correct. Was already looking for ones that use Hitachi steels, which is super uncommon even with custom makers. They typically use stuff like S45VN, Elmax, M390, Cruwear for corrosion resistance

Any bets on how high the bids will go on this Kamon? I'm gonna say 5k

Just ask @daddy yo yo how much he has in the bank
I think closer to €8k. Closest guess without going over gets a a custom slot in Ben’s books! How about it @KAMON Knives?

at that point is it even something that is used as a tool or just flaunting "F you" money as an art piece
Depends who buys it. Modern Cooking has much more range of clients than this forum demographics. Some art collectors, some hobbyists, some professionals, etc
Hope at that price it comes with a stepladder so you could actually use the knife.
I mean, someone spent almost 5 grand for this thing.

There are certainly people out there with FU money that collect knives as art pieces.
Yeah, but that knife gets you a free pass into Mordor. Different ballgame.
I have the same feeling. I have loved the feel of a good kitchen knife as long as I remember, but it is still a tool to me. I have no problem using 500$ on a knife that brings me joy daily in the kitchen. I would even pay 1000$ for a knife from a maker showing great craftmanship, knowing I could use it for the rest of my life and pass on a great knife to my children. But 2000+? I would never dare use it, it would just sit in a drawer as an "investment". I have zero interest in that, but to each his own I guess.

I'm going with $9300/€8651.
oddly specific. Is that your max bid?
I wish, my max possible bid was just exceeded so I'll have to go looking for other Kamon's instead.oddly specific. Is that your max bid?
That is neat. Does Carbon typically do these email raffles often? That's the first one I've seen.
Aw man, CKC getting into the knife raffle game now too? That's disappointing. I really don't like this trend.
Why don’t we like raffles?
yeah I’m actually debating whether I should enter the raffle or not lolThank you very kindly. Although my wallet secretly hopes against winning this.

I just won Bernals recent Jiro raffle and had the same conflicted thoughts. Ended up buying it anyway, and it's a beast of a knife
Resale / trade makes it worth it every time no? I mean maybe that is a problem with raffles.. you get a lot of those types of entries. I'm ok with it as long as the winner is a member here . Keep it in the fam.

it's not really a raffle is it? doesnt seem like you have to pay for a slot, nor can you pay for extra chances
more like a draw.
draws are easily the fairest way to do it, so I also dont get the complaints. maybe you get lucky, maybe you dont. and I dont have to listen to another person swear to me they didnt use any automated tools.

yes. the problem is when I like a knife so much I don’t want to part with it and have to deal with the expense
