Originally a recent purchased at CarbonKnifeCo for $480USD.
I would like to sell it for $400USD via PayPal, including shipping within the CONUS.

I have lightly touched up the knife with NSK Hak. 3k and a plain denim strop. I have used it on vegetables, so you will see some patina. There is wabi sabi (I believe they called it for imperfection), to me, I see that its very unique and rustic. I have oiled it and put in box ready to ship.
This is not an easy decision for me to let it go, but I need the funds for my children's school shopping.
