Hey all, up for sale is my custom aikuchi kotanto made by Dave Friesen of Crossed Heart Forge. This really doesn't get used at all and I have some expenses coming up. It kills me to sell this but I can't afford to have something like this stick around as a display piece.
This is one of the most unique and painstakingly crafted knives you will ever see. Rather than explain the entire knife, I ask you to refer to these two links; one is the WIP thread here, the other is the summary on Dave's site. This will contain all specs, materials and processes.

This project was fully commissioned by myself and I couldn't be happier with it. Dave is a one of a kind maker and it is an honor to have worked with him.
The knife is in the same condition as the day I received it. I carried it a couple times and opened a couple packages but it is still 100% with zero signs of wear. If you would like specific pictures, just let me know.
Here is one of my own:

Price is $SOLD net shipped within the USA via Paypal. International buyers, please contact me for a shipping quote. First "I'll take it" gets it. Please keep in mind that this posted on multiple forums.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thanks for looking!
