WTS Takeda Classic 270 mm yanagiba - worldwide shipping

Discussion in 'Buy/Sell/Trade' started by mark76, Dec 2, 2017.

  1. Takeda Classic 270 mm yanagiba. Completely unused (except for slicing a few slices of meat and fish).

    Great high-end knife that looks good and cuts like a dream. Also has a very good fit and finish. It is a somewhat thicker knife with wide bevels and little flex that excels in cutting cooked meat. I also love the Takeda for raw fish.

    After getting this knife I was (like some of you) not very happy with the grind and I sent it back to Takeda. He reground the knife and I am now much happier with it. The knife is much thinner behind the edge and the shinogi line has moved up, too. It now cuts like a dream.

    Sorry for the rather bland images (crappy cell phone).

    See for an extensive review and even more specs: https://japaneseknifereviews.wordpr...c-yanagiba-versus-ashi-hamono-ginga-sujihiki/

    Price: US$390 or EUR 330. This includes shipping within the EU. I ship worldwide, but PM me for shipping costs to the USA or other countries. Preferred payment by Paypal.
     
  2. I already wrote it comes in new condition. That also means it comes with the original box.
     
  3. I'm surprised this high-end knife hasn't sold yet. Quite often I see requests for it. But alas.

    Price cut. It now costs $340 (EUR 289). Originally I paid $445 and the knife is in exactly the same condition as when I bought it.

    In addition, I'll pay a large part of the shipping costs:
    - EU: free normal shipping, shipping with track-and-trace: EUR 7.
    I already paid half of the shipping costs with this. If you want insurance or recorded delivery, send me a PM.
    - Rest of the world: normal shipping: $11 (EUR 10), whipping with track and trace: $18 (EUR 15).
    Again, half of the original shipping costs is for me and PM me for insurance or recorded delivery.
