ℹ️ PLEASE NOTE: This knife is sold at a discount due to some extremely minor spot blemishes on one side which can be seen on the large photo here and so is sold as-is. We do not anticipate this being anything other than a minor cosmetic finish and the knife is otherwise brand new and unused in original packaging.
