Hi KKF,



I miss BST 😅

I really wanted to keep this but I’m cutting down to my core. Still lookers and performers here.

Not in a rush for funds. That said I’ve talked to some people about it already so if it comes down to a sale it’s possibly spoken for already.


In terms of trades, I’m at my end game but I’ll be open to trade for like

Bidinger B Grind
TheNine
Bazes
A Sexy Dark Handled Kamon
Xerxes San-Mai
Yanick - Honyaki
Deep Etch Milan
Kaiju
Something along those lines







Comet 26C3 Honyaki 216mm (Bog Oak)



Price is what I paid for the knife alone - $1250USD


Steel: 26C3
Heel Height: 53.0mm
Edge Length: 216mm
Thickness of Spine at Heel: 2.8mm
Weight: 194g
Finish: Honyaki/Polished
Handle: Bog Oak
Geometry: Convex Laser



Comes with a custom leather saya I commissioned for it. It’s a perfect fiction fit.

Amazing performer and honyaki from a time before. Would really love to keep this but just got to draw straws for what I release at this point.

Seen some use before I got it, I removed the patina and had the edge professionally freshened up.

Also had it rehandled with mono-octagonal bog oak - construction is a painted dowel, hard to capture in photos

Purchased late last year or this year. Ran a few tests with it.



Kind of busy today so let's say I make a decision by next week. Easter egg on last photo on possibly more to come soon .. uh eventually



Thanks all.

Sorry, no it's in USD.

But it's what I purchased it for (not considering the handle change, custom saya and whatnots) and a rough benchmark of what I've heard they may be going for in the background.
 
Had lots of interests but nothing concrete. Original purchases decided they’d sit out for now.

Going to drop this to $1400. Will take trades and/or sales.
