I need a new knife.
I want a Kramer by Zwilling High Carbon ten inch chefs knife. I’ll gladly trade you a minty Mecha with everything except the sticker which is on my acoustic.
Thank you for your support!

When are you going to bite the bullet and chase down a real Kramer? It’s becoming the next logical step! Best wishes in the knife hunt!

That’s definitely a big price jump. I was just looking at what a real one would go for and it always blows my mind.
For people who don’t want to click the link it sold for $4,600

Yeah they aren’t that high direct but the wait list is looooooong, that said if I was going to get another custom knife the wait is worth it to have it built to my liking

My knife buddy said “that one you linked me to on eBay is poorly sharpened and bent” but that’s his opinion, I know nothing of knives…
I thought that $4k or so was the entry point for a Kramer custom, even direct. But yeah the wait list is nuts

To be completely honest it may be higher now, I haven’t looked in years. More of a Carter fan myself, Kramer shaping just doesn’t check the right boxes for me.

The last Kramer I saw on eBay was original owner in Hawaii and they wanted 22500.00 U. S. For it. Just saying.

Oh I don’t doubt the expense but I have seen people bitten by the bug. The mid tech versions just don’t quite scratch the itch and most eventually seek out full customs. Have seen this both in chefs knives as well as pocket knives. I’m pulling for you either way, even the production Kramers are tricky to come by!

I imagine all the knives I have would be analogous to those dollar store yoyos to you guys.
