This is a stainless steel netting needle for hand-knitting landing nets. I purchased it from Akasaka Woodworks in Sapporo. It is 268mm long and 9mm wide. You can knit up to an inner diameter of about 27cm without joining threads (see the 4th photo). The corners have been chamfered, but if they catch, please finish them with sandpaper. This is the price for a set of two.
