SOLD /WTT The9 Small Ktip Gyuto / Large Petty

[bearhippo]

Back up on the market as my priorities have shifted and while this is a great knife, it's just a bit too much knife for me.

This has been used about six times and has not been sharpened, only leather stropped.

From the May newsletter / ballot.

Trade value @ $550 (my at-cost w/o shipping, fees into account).
Sale value @ $580 shipped CONUS - preference to someone who may also be interested in picking up my HF Mini-Chuka (will bundle discount)

Specs:
Blue #2 Iron-Clad
173mm x 47mm
135 grams
4.7 - 2.2 - 1.3
(western) bog oak handle.

WTTF (+- cash if needed): Milan (undersized 240s), Konosuke Chuka (preferably in blue).

I am also happy to consider trade offers outside of the above for makers/knives of the same caliber (e.g. I would not be looking to trade this for a random JP maker + cash).

Where would peg the trade value?

Sorry, to clarify: you're looking for chukas/large nakiris from those makers (Kamon, Milan, The9, Yanick, Konosuke Raquin Jiro)? What dimensions do you have in mind?

I would peg it $550 (my at-cost). Thanks for reminding me to edit that into the main post.

All good and ditto on the above re. reminding me to be more specific. I'm open to knives per the following:

Happy to consider any trade offer but preference would be towards gyuto, a full-size chuka, or a very large nakiri (more so a small chuka that is ~ 90mm +).

If gyuto - preference towards knives that are below 240mm (I'm more of a 230mm / long 210 type of guy).

For Konosuke, I would really only be interested in their now seemingly discontinued chuka offering (preferably in blue rather than white).; see the OG post for updated trade preferences.

What a cool little knife. Hope you find a nice trade for it!

Bit of an earlier bump than usual but hoping to finalize sooner than later out of respect (time-wise) for those who've already offered. I will have this thread open for another week to grab more offers unless something super intriguing comes along and closes that window shut.

Bump.

Final bump before making a trade decision EOD today.

 

[bearhippo]

Bump. Ended up never finalizing on a trade for this bad boy but putting it back up on the market now.

B, inbox filled up like mad for a solo sale; leaving this up for a bit to see if there's a potential bundle and to see other trade offers.
