Product description
Tall petty from Mutsumi Hinoura, good knuckle clearance on board for small tasks.
Used very little, sharpened once.
Thin both behind the edge and at the tip.
Kurouchi tsushime finish, great distal taper for a petty (see measurements).
Feels great in hand, thanks to the oval burnt chestnut (plus horn) handle as well.
Probably my favourite type of handle: looks nice, great grip and resistant to moisture.

Blade length 155
Edge length 140
Height @heel 38
Thickness @spine 4,4 @mid 1,8 @tip 0,3
