WTS Shigefusa KU Nakiri 180mm - BNIB

[nakiriknaifuwaifu]

For sale is a BNIB 180mm Shigefusa KU Nakiri

True edge length: 173mm
Height: 55mm
Weight: 215.5g

(for reference my 165mm size was 160mmx51mm; they run short as Shigefusa measures spine length from start of heel to tip)

A close contact has informed me that Shigefusa has a significant impending price increase, and with the rarity of the 180mm size I have decided to price it at $18,500 shipped CONUS. Offers welcome.

Also, I'm OK with shipping internationally and will cover the first 15usd.

 

[nakiriknaifuwaifu]

ok apparently the video uploady thing isn't working so I will try again later

It’s the length that makes it valuable. There has to be 20 160mm KU’s for every 1 180mm.

I’ve seen rare KU Shigs go for $1,400

 

[Hero KZ]

$18,500? What currency are we talking about here?

Looks great. Well worth $20000.

Haven’t seen many of these, although I think @ma_sha1 might have made a couple.

 

[captaincaed]

Do you take first borns?

 

[Bico Doce]

How is this still available?!? Deals like this don’t come along often, c’mon people let’s get this thing sold!

 

[A.Malcolm.ations]

Insane deal. Absolutely shocked this is still up at this price.

 

[chiffonodd]

If you don't have any takers you should try raising the price

It's not friend and it's not your fault.

There are some comments that were removed by moderators wherein a member was complaining, quite rudely, about the original price. Our OP friend then gave the knife an outrageous price.

Discount for Chef's. +$100 for everyone else. I think he forgot about the original taxes, shipping, membership fee and his Aflac payment though. He should adjust the price to reflect that.

Absolute steal at 20k

If I buy this at the asking price, do I get a top five slot on the current Massdrop?

Dammit. I'd almost managed to forget about missing out on that.

Guess I'll have to sell my car to buy this and try to make do....

 

[daddy yo yo]

I have a matching 180 KU nakiri BNIB which I could sell you at the same price - then you’d have a super rare pair which should sell easily at 50k. What do you think?

 

[HumbleHomeCook]

What if I ya know, pledge the money?

 

[Delat]

Can we all take a moment to appreciate NKW’s tremendous courage in his willingness to let this knife go at this price? Judging by the price, it’s an unprecedented level of courage, perhaps even a world record. So much strength!

 

[txglasgow]

What if I ya know, pledge the money?

I hear that's the same thing as donating!

Give it a couple of years, inflation will get us there before you know it

Give it a couple of months, inflation will get us there before you know it

I adjusted the timeline according to the latest projections
