they all should have that small hole in the gusset,although some were tange made and others were kuwahara made so that may be the reason,mines got that little hole and is kuwi made, the kyz had the gusset like the kz1 but not the extra hole but is a looptail unlike the kz.a fair price is £250 - £300,a decent chrome one may cost a bit more

I would have thought an early T stamped KZ in excellent OG condition would cost more.
