I was organizing the kitchen cabinet and found some old items. They appear to be from the past, likely used by my mother. They aren't cheap items; they seem to be the real thing. At first glance, they look dirty, but this is due to aging and use. Except for the blade (ha), the entire item is made of wood. It's heavy and feels like it would be easy to carve. Unfortunately, the blade is rusty, but you can remove it like a plane blade and sharpen it. Since it was actually used, it's practical. If you plane it well, you can shave thin, paper-like katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes) in an interesting way. I want you to experience this feeling. Please purchase it as Showa retro. Also, please examine the photos and make your purchase based on them. The shipping cost will be 750 yen, so please understand that this is reflected in the price.
