Downsizing getting harder and harder.

- Gesshin Ittetsu honyaki 240mm (actual about 228x46), white 2 steel, from the first run JKI did. Ebony handle, white 2 steel. I did some light thinning so it could use a touch of sandpaper love for re-beautification but I don't typically care about that for my knives. Since it needs a little refreshing, $1k flat.

- Gesshin Kagekiyo honyaki 240mm (actual about 228x49), white 2 steel. Not a lot of wide-bevel honyaki out there. Retails for $1350. $1200 all in. Touched up, never needed a new bevel.
 
Couple pics. Solid patina on both, but more so the Ittetsu.

Feeling motivated with the other recent success.
Let's do $900 on the Ittetsu!
$1,200 is a really good price on the other so I don't wanna move it.
 
Probs final drops: $800 on Ittetsu and $1100 on Kagekiyo. Buy both and you can have two awesome honyaki from the best knife shop in the world for $1800.
 
Since I already have a few things going out, crazy deal at $1K flat on this knife. Currently retails at $1,350 and this thing hasn't seen so much as a touch up. Never touched a rock in its life.
