White Crain Aikuchi

[JParanee]

As most of you all know I have a long on going love affair with Japanese styled knives.

I also said that after Th El Salvador Tanto I picked up (which by the way Phill confirmed to me that he has made only 4) was done for awhile with Japanese style blades

Well the other day I was doing some obscure searches on Ebay when I came across this White Crain Aikuchi from Phill .

It was not listed as well as it should of been and I can'y pass up a deal

The White Crain is a rather expensive knife but lets just say with no reserve and a low starting price I put a very low snipe on it and to my pleasant suprise landed the knife at the lowest price I have ever payed for a Hartsfield or any other rather expensive blade. Truly a gift

Mint condition White Crain Aikuchi

Oh, WOW, Joey....just wow. It's just beautiful, gorgeous, well finished and you are soooo lucky to have gotten it. (did I leave anything out???)

Seriously, Joe it is finished pretty darned nice for a sharpened crow bar, but if you are happy, well then I'm tickled to death for you.

Thanks Buddy. My taste in knives are as bad as my taste in friends

Usually they are kinda ugly but I can count on them when I need them

Joe, gotta love those good Ebay deals. Especially when you pick up a sleeper!! Congrats>

A gorgeous one, too.

I've almost stopped looking at Ebay, there's really never anything worthwhile there, but now and then............
