Hello, I stumbled upon the CRKT set called, Hisshou, shinbu,Hissatsu. I fell in love with them but know very little about this new hobby. It's like my gateway drug I suppose haha.
How much would be a fair value if I were to make an offer? I think $600 for all 3? This includes the nice boxes and sheaths. I may be wildly wrong and appreciate any wisdom.

Seems a little spendy for crkt stuff.
Personally I wouldn't offer that much but that's just me.
They do look cool!

I'm pretty sure at least one of these has been discontinued for a while and is pretty sought-after in the aftermarket. I can't remember original retail, but I'm pretty sure they each ran from $50-200 at one point. $600 is probably reasonable for a set of out-of-production models in like-new condition if you really like it, but I wouldn't spend that much, myself.

The set seems from a 2019 run, originally priced at 1000$ made from O1 steel, so 600 is actually a good price. If they are indeed real.

I think the set was all carbon steel though. The other 2 go for 200-400$ and are YK-30, but sources on the 2019 set say O1.

$600 for all three is extif they are in good shape. I paid $300 for a Hisshou on eBay a couple of years ago. The ito had some shin oil on it but overall was in good shape. And $300 is cheap for them. I’ve seen them go for $500-600 easy. Shinbu is about the same price on eBay. The hissatsu is a little different. A first gen goes for a little more usually than the second gen silver or black ones. I have all three of these (several of the black ones I intended to sell and give a couple to friends). I usually see the black ones going for about a hundred with a few for less occasionally.
