This knife is a monster! It absolutely blew me away and I have had one in my cart many times since the pass around. I need to sit this one out but some lucky SOB is going to score one helluva knife. GLWS!

Wow, wow, wow!! What a deal. I've handled this one too, and like chris said, it's a killer knife! Beautiful handle, really even more stunning in person. It has a nimble feel, very confident cutter buttery smooth profile. Someone is going to be blessed. Glws George.

Does this come with the original handle, too, by any chance?

Looks great, especially with that handle. Way outside of my comfort zone in terms of size, but pitch-perfect for some others around these parts. GLWS

Last offer before I decide to keep it:

for $240, you get the Ogata and a basswood strop loaded on both sides with the diamond compounds (Richmond diamond paste) of your choice: 1.0 micron, 0.50 micron, 0.25 micron (and of course no compound if you decide so).

$ 230 and a strop, including shipping, because the woodworking bug bit me pretty well
