I have the following knives for sale. My wife is sick so I am selling off some of the unused pieces in my collection. I accept Money orders or PayPal if you include the fee. Please include $5 for shipping by USPS Priority w/ Del. Confirmation. I guarantee the knives to be exactly as described or you can return them within 3 days. Please email me at riverowl@msn.com with any questions. Thanks very much for looking!
Japanese utility knives with wood scabbards:
The first knife in the picture is for a Kiridashi with wooden handle and scabbard. The overall length is about 7 1/4' with a 2 3/4" blade with 1 1/2" cutting edge. I think the wood is white oak or some other white hardwood. Back side of blade has makers mark, I think I got this from Bugei but I'm not sure. Like new and unused.
$15 >SOLD
The next 2 knives also have wooded handles and scabbards. The blades are marked "Stainless Japan" and have false Hamon lines along the edge. Overall length is about 8 1/4" with a blade length of about 3 1/2" and a stock thickness of 3/32". The blade is held in place in the handle with a brass pin. I would say these are from the '60's or so and have been used but are in good condition. The blades have some scratches and the handles are starting to crack with age. They could use a sharpening and an oil bath for the handles. I think these were handmade because the dimensions are slightly off. These are pretty cool.
$20 each >$17 each or both for $30
