Hi folks,

hard to let this one go but after a long time sitting a a drawer I want to give this knife a new life.
In 2014 I sent this knife to Greg Gola. He did an amazing job sharpening the knife and adding a new handle
Since then I used the knife once on a couple of small sea bass. Being landlocked doesnt help.

If anyone is interested the price is 300 EUR ( 330 USD) with shipping in most of Europe.

here is the blog post. I haven't sharpened the knife since. Only stropped it on leather.

Hi Matus, thank you

I've added recent pictures
there is some light patina and a scratch near the tip of the blade.

so I may have overpriced the deba. I figured a refurbishing of a relatively cheep single bevel would improve the blade road and overall performance.
Since some may see refurbishing as devaluing the blade and I dont have much use for it I'm reducing the price
200$ + shipping
 
Thanks Matus, Valgard

If anyone is still interested the knife is still available.
