sold

Serious inquiries only, please!

This is a shakehand, one-ply, 9mm Kiso hinoki blade. This blade is beautiful. It has been used once for about ten minutes and is flawless (exactly like new). I still have the original packaging, as well.

I recently changed my technique and now find straight handles unusable; otherwise, there is no chance I'd sell this blade. It is a work of art and I plan on buying a FL as soon as I can.

This blade cost me $180 from iruiru.com. I will sell it for $165, or trade it for a FL handled Speed 90 in equally good condition.

Pics coming soon... if you want them sooner, please PM me with your email address and I'll send you some pictures.

I need to take some pics, but I think it weighs 88 grams. I'm 90% positive that is correct, but let me verify that. I'll have pics and more precise weight posted sometime this weekend.

Oh nice, I just played a guy who used this blade here. He said that he finally settled on this blade as his perfect blade, he had a Timo Boll ZLC and a Primorac Carbon in his bag and liked this Darker the best.

I just wonder why your blade does not have the label Speed 90 showed on the handle? Where did you buy it from?

I purchased it from iruiru.com. That's where part of the original price came from. I think it was close to $20 shipping from Japan. The blade isn't cheap to begin with. Now I'm gonna have to wait for this one to sell so I can afford a FL version.

By the way, anyone who purchases this will receive free shipping!

However, the price will not be reduced. I'll hang it on my wall as a decoration before I lower the price. I am open to a reasonable trade--even though I'd prefer a purchase.

bump.

Two more days to get a $180 blade for $150!!!

I won't be taking the post down, just putting the price back to $165. Specials aren't special if they are available all the time.

Okay, looks like no one wanted to take me up on the offer. So... the price is once again $165.

However, I am also now willing to trade for like new, FL handled versions of the following blades:

Butterfly Timo Boll Spirit (plus a little extra, e.g. cash or another less expensive blade)
Butterfly Timo Boll ALC
Butterfly Photino
XIOM Ignito (plus something extra)
Darker Hinoki Shake Speed 90 FL handle

Did u mean that I could trade 1 of the above high-lighted duo for your Darker? I may be able to "grant" your wish....We'll see...

Yes, I meant only one of the above since they're comparable in price. However, they must be like new, as the Darker has about ten minutes of play time on it and is still flawless. PM me if you want to grant my wish.

I wish to buy it now..anyone to offer this blade?

yeah I know.
