SOLD / WTT Migoto Rentetsu 240mm

[enrico]

Looking to sell some of my last “nicer” knives. Mainly going in the direction of customs and work knives only. Have a few that are/will be ready soon and would like to use this $$ to pay for them. Also been buying some hiking stuff too which seems to be a new hobby. It's been fun to try everything out, but I have some other lower tier knives I'd like to try and play with. Add a sujihiki and beater and you'd be pretty set IMO. PM with any questions.

Oh my that Yanick!

GLWS - goodness gracious I want that Yanick

 

[Homechef]

Little bundle of joy for a Sunday! Nice pricing here on three awesome knives. GLWS

 

[A.Malcolm.ations]

Crazy stone addict set. Wish I had the cash

 

[enrico]

All of these knives are used. Yamada only for 2 sessions. Yanick most used, tipped and sharpened. Nine honesuki used and sharpened. If you want drawer queens these are not for you.

 

[enrico]

I'll split the bundle. I'm cool with keeping either The Nine or Yamada. LMK which ones you want

Thanks

migoto x nine honesuki sold for $525 to a gentleman

$2k for yanny and yamada

If you were thinking about the Yamada solo….. I’d do $700 shipped. A tad bit of a loss but oh well.

Yanny will not be sold solo and when bundled, yanny and yamada are at my true cost to your door.

Can we get a choil shot on the Yamada?

 

[Logan A.]

Pretty sure the last few Yamada that sold on here went for near $1000, and a few with finished bevels for a couple hundred more. Quite the deal here!

Can we get a choil shot on the Yamada?

Sure, added some extras as well and a video to see the cladding around the core steel at the heel.

 

[ethompson]

If anyone is interested in the Yamada, let me know. I'd be down to do a bunch of pro-bono polishing (bevels fully evened, full kasumi, minor thinning, choil / spine rounding, etc.) work on it to help me justify the package and take home the Yanick...

Help me help myself by helping you

 

[ShinVik]

Interested in the yamada. ethompson how shall we do this? I'll dm you.

 

[enrico]

Will consider trades

Change of plans,

Ended up sending the Yanick to a buddy who’s been looking for one this size.

Going to leave Yamada up for a little before fully committing to it. Looking for trades mainly western handled gyutos like denka, mab, goku, hisamoto. Non yo handled would be stuff like Heji. But I’m pretty open to hearing what you have. Value remains $650.

Sorry for the back and forth on this thread. Been swamped at work and haven’t had much time for my knives. It’s always a constant battle of hoarding, selling, and buying more.

Cheers
