WTB Watanabe Pro Gyuto 210/240mm (EU)

[mack]

Hi guys!

I am looking for a Watanabe Pro Gyuto in either 210 or 240mm. Could order directly of course but wanted to check what's flying around. I would only consider knives from the EU because of bad experiences in the past.

Thanks for looking,

Mack.

what exactly do you mean by bad experiences?
import costs?

 

[mack]

Yeah, import costs are high, the waiting time was very very long (months) and knives were rusty when I received them. And last but not least one knife (which I sold) got lost and I stopped trying to get my money back because it was simply too troublesome.

Insane is a better term. I have looked at several knives and import at like 150-200 euro just steered me away. It would have to be a darn good deal for me to even consider buying international.
