The six knives from t'other thread.

These knives and this timber are nothing short of magnificent, a real treasure to own and use and a proper family heirloom in the making.

Six knives, 2mm stock SF100 blade steel, 100mm or so blade edge, Grandfather Rosewood scales.

The Rosewood is imported from Java, It is renowned as being the most sought-after timber originating from Java.

It is referred to there as Grandfather Wood, it is actually now extinct in the forest and grown in community gardens which have been passed down through generations, planted by the elders of families year after year for future generations to harvest and reap the returns.

Difficult to price as there is probably £1500 going rate value of cutlery here.

They were kind of spawned by those 4" Paring knives though which are priced at £180 each, potentially making the set £1080. I think I might like to see the set under £1k though.

My asking price for the set of six knives today is £950, all in, delivered to your door.

As always, particularly with these as I realise this is quite a hefty sum, I will listen to sensible offers.

Can't help thinking if you need a knife that good to cut a steak I don't think I'd want the steak 😳
A beautiful set, my hats off to you sir.
I get your point mate, I'm not sure it is about need though, I don't need half of the stuff that I have 😂

Now want, pleasure, enjoyment and pride in ownership, they are quite different things :)

And thank you 🙏
