I wanted to auction it within my other auction (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1725337.0), but as some people have concerns of it not getting through customs I decided to open a separate auction for the knife.
In case you win both auctions, you can safe on shipping costs.

Only 20 were made and originally sold here on the forum by colinistheman. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=954924.msg10452172#msg10452172)

Please note:

You cannot claim 1/20 as the series was not numbered. There is no way to claim or verify that even if you were the first buyer and I find it entirely misleading.

Thank you for your hint. Edit in first post.

The first buyers can be identified here in the prototype thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=941287.0

The prototypes were also featured in the below article and picture (http://digitalmoneytimes.com/?s=the+cutting+edge+of+money).

I own one of the prototypes.

This was due to the fact that the seller had taken my order on their site at the same time another user bought them out. even though the site said they were still in stock

If anyone is interested in the prototype version let me know.

Sorry OP for hijacking your thread.

Are you willing to send this item with a customs decleration as declaring this as a piece of art. This might raise the odds of it getting through the customs.

I can do that. It is kind of true.  :D
But to be clear. Customs is buyers risk.

Germany has very strict regulations about knifes, but even here this kind of knife is no problem. It is a normal knife. No switchblade or butterfly...
