【Top-Quality Kōhō】Aogami Usuba Knife, 7-inch (approx. 210mm) - My Partner Since My Training Days
118.47 $
Description
Thank you for viewing.
This is a Koho usuba (thin-bladed) knife (Aogami steel) that I resolutely purchased during my apprenticeship 30 years ago and have fought alongside me in the field ever since.
[The Value of This Knife]
The brand name Koho, now extremely difficult to obtain.
Currently, if you were to order a new knife of this level of Aogami steel from the same brand, it would easily exceed 100,000 yen. Even after 30 years, its shine and sharpness remain undiminished.
[Condition and Commitment]
? Brand: Koho (a professional-grade brand often mentioned alongside Masamoto)
? Steel: Aogami steel (tenacious and achieves astonishing long-lasting sharpness)
? Size: Blade length approx. 210mm (7 sun)
? Maintenance: Sharpened daily by a professional for 30 years, with perfect uraoshi (back grinding). No warping.
[My Thoughts on Selling]
I described it as well-used, but that is proof of its survival in a professional setting.
Unlike inexpensive new knives, it is already seasoned, so you can experience its perfect, smooth sharpness from the moment you hold it.
Honestly, letting it go feels like cutting off a piece of myself, but I am listing it because I want to pass on this spirit to the next generation of aspiring individuals.
??Notes
? Please check the photos for signs of sharpening, scuffs from long-term use, and the patina of the handle.
? I will not accept any price negotiations, as I wish to pass this on to someone who understands the value of such a tool.
For those looking for a lifelong companion.
Please experience the feel of Koho's genuine Aogami steel with your own hands.
