Up for sale is this modified Imacasa 808-20. Work on this model include:
~Rounding/dressing of spine
~Rounding/dressing of ricasso
~Trimming of flashing
~Regrinding of tip profile
~Sharpening of edge/clip
~Convexing of edge/clip
~Polishing of edge/clip
This piece is light and fast in the hand with a slight and elegant curve. Blade is 19.5" of 1075 High Carbon steel and a point of balance 5.5" in front of the handle. The grinds are done nice and thin on thin stock, so it will glide effortlessly through soft targets. The tip is in line with the hand for excellent point control. A very maneuverable piece that feels like a sharpened feather in the hand.
Asking $35 Plus Shipping--I accept payment via PayPal, money order, or personal check. If paying by PayPal don't worry about compensating for processing fees--that's on my bill, not yours. Item typically ships same or next business day that payment is received, so if paying by check or money order please allow time for funds to make it to me.
Now on to the pics!
