is the knife MINT from maker or used? how is the edge now?

 

[ryan9977]

spyken....i bought it here on the exchange used....it is in really good condition.....as far as the edge it could use a sharpening......alot of takeda's and other japanese knives come with a misty looking bevel.....that is not present due to sharpening......it can however be brought back with stones......let me know if u have any other questions......ryan

p.s.-i might be interested in trade options as well.....ryan
