I was looking at his 8/8 and it ended up going for $330. That is waaaaay out of my price range, but what about this one? Is the chip something that can be repaired, or left and not cause damage? I really want a big blade like this, but can't find many and can't afford the ones I do. I am on a mission to find one like this, which will put an end to my RAD (I hope). What do you guys think about the chip on this one?
