That’s the beauty of a free state. They won’t deliver to me I’m in Mass. It’s go big or go home with the monster 12 incher on Midway or for the same price buy a huge two-handed Samurai sword lol.I think I paid $150ish on amazon.

Always wanted one of these since the 80’s and finally said “F it” and just bought it.
You should be able to get that here. As long as it’s not a double edge.That’s the beauty of a free state. They won’t deliver to me I’m in Mass. It’s go big or go home with the monster 12 incher on Midway or for the same price buy a huge two-handed Samurai sword lol.
I’m sure I could but not from Amazon because of their policy. I would probably go for one from Midway and will keep an eye on them in the next couple weeks.You should be able to get that here. As long as it’s not a double edge.
You still chose wisely. I’ve read a few reviews that the “assembly in Taiwan” business is not as big of a deal as like an air conditioner or something. Since the steel is manufactured in the US it should still be solid quality. And you’re only giving up 4” on the Midway model but saving $150. That’s a win in my book.I paid about $150 on amazon. Just be aware that there are two different high end steel now.
The regular San Mai III and this one. I don’t know much about metals but got this one because I misread the ad and thought It was made in the USA. Turns out the actual steel is made in the USA, but they ship it to Taiwan for production

I’m painting the foyer and hallway. I’ve always used it painting but I think I’m going to carry it for a while.Saw all different variations at “You-Can-Do-It” electronics, wanted one ever since.
Those are great knives. I had one at one time. Kick myself for getting rid of it. The earlier the date the more they are sought after.I love my Camillus U.S. Demolition knife...
