A Japanese fuguhiki knife, a slender slicing knife traditionally used for preparing thin slices of fish.

Blade length: approximately 285mm.

The knife shows visible signs of use, including scratches, polishing marks, an uneven blade finish, and areas of dark discoloration. The wooden handle also shows wear and discoloration. Please examine the blade surface, cutting edge, tip, and handle closely in the photos.

A wooden saya is included. The knife does not slide fully into the saya, leaving part of the blade near the handle exposed, as shown in the photos. The saya may require adjustment or replacement for a proper fit.

This knife was purchased as a honyaki knife. However, its construction has not been independently verified, and I cannot guarantee that it is honyaki. The exact steel grade is also unknown. Please understand this uncertainty before purchasing.

Please wash before use, dry thoroughly after washing, and store in a dry place.

The knife will be carefully packed with additional blade protection for safe international shipping. The decorative display stand is not included.

Please review all photos carefully before purchasing, as they form part of the description.
