Hi KKF,

looking to sell some knives to start parring back the collection and free up funds to dump right back into knives... cause ya know... can't control myself.

A bit late here so I'll send new photos in the morning when there is better light But loading some right now as general proof.

Open to offers or trades.

Shibata Ko bunka comes with Saya- asking $200 $150 (SOLD ON REDDIT)
Condition - fairly. new, Never sharpened but has been used a decent amount. still has a pretty sharp OOTB edge. No scratches no issues. First and only owner (purchased from CKTG).

Halcyon Forge - Purchased for 950, asking for $800 TRADED
Originally purchased from: Namaxy here is the original link from HF
Condition: I'm not actually sure if Namaxy has used the knife as it came to me without any Patina. I have used the knife twice to just feel out the knife and decided it wasn't for me. never stropped, never sharpened and crazy sharp. Great knife, the handle just has not super jived with me.

Aight ya'll. Sorry for the potato photos yesterday, but today's might not be much better... I'm not a good photographer but my camera also has a screwed up 1x magnification so I'm stuck taking photos with .5x or 3x. any how......

see attached. As you can see the Ko-bunka is in pristine condition - no scratches that I can see and again, I've left the edge as factory. Happy to provide more photos upon request.

Ko bunka is great for small tasks like shallots or garlic.
I won't be too broken up if the HF doesn't sell 🤷‍♂️
