Please, feel free to ask any questions.

Length -425mm

Signature - 敬太 (This is the original owner\'s name. I heard this was custom made item, so i think the brand name was not curved. Probably, this was made by a blacksmith in Sakai, Osaka.)

Blade Length -270mm

STEEL - Carbon steel (blue paper steel, The letter 青鋼 on the back means so.)

I heard from previous-owner that this knife was not used, he just sharpened and polished the surface of the blade. I re-sharpened this with several stones.

Normally, I sharpened the blade by several synthetic and natural stones.(Sometime, I skip a natural stone.)I don\'t sharpen it perfectly because it takes a lot of time. Please sharpen it as you would like to.
